Crusier Backrest question for Heritage
Hey folks, does anyone have this backrest from CruiserBackrest.com?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...;rd=1&rd=1
And if you do have it on a Heritage Classic, how do you like it?
It looks pretty good with the chrome bracket. I am also considering the Firehouse Customs backrest.
Thanks for any feedback,

It says 86-06 but they most likely make one for the 07 as well. It appears just like the Firehousecustoms, except in chrome, and a maybe little wider at the base. I tried the Firehousecustoms and didn't like it because it sits you upright. I'm 6'2 and like to lean back further. I'm sure it's fine for shorter people and you like sitting straight up. They both look like very cheap leather, shiny and doesn't match your stock seats.
I opted for the Mustang wide solo with rider backrest and wide pillion. I couldn't be happier and my better half says the pillion is nite and day over stock.

I have the FireHouse Custom Backrest and it looks great with the stock 07 Heritage. Keeps you an inch or two closer. Seats you upright to prevent lower back pain.

Thanks for the responces Navy and HD Bones.
I just got a message back from the vendor that it does NOT fit the 2007 Heritage, so it's a moot point after all I guess.
Hey Navy, I'm 5'8" and so it might work for me a little better than it did for you. Do you still have the FirehouseCustoms backrest?

Yeah I still have it. I used it for about 30 minutes so it's still brand spanking new in the box. Eventually I'll get off my **** and put it in the classifieds for $85, w/free shipping...it's $139 w/shipping from the company.
