Default 2014 Heritage Back Rest

My friend bought a 2014 Heritage, I think this is a Harley seat and passenger pillion. Is there a way to fit a back rest to this driver seat? Who makes it?
Thanks for any help,
Mike

There is a company, Grasshopper I think, that molds or bolts a back rest bracket into the seat base. I looked into that option briefly several years ago but went a different route. The touring frame accommodates a separate backrest bracket, Mustang or HD, but the Softail frames and seats I have seen don't have that option, instead built into the seat pan like the Mustang.

I have the Grasshopper on my 2017 Heritage with the stock saddle. I like it a lot and for under 100 dollars worth the money. Ride Safe JIM
