Check out the Heritage rider backrest
I bought a used studded Mustang backrest on ebay for $49.00, missing most of the mounting hardware. Mama had been looking for something that would work on a 2010 Heritage that would fold forward and not break the bank. Very few options out there. She wanted lower back support and to be pushed forward a little. I knew I would need to fab up some way to mount it but didn't think it would be so easy. Check it out!

If your seat comes apart (I used to have a Fatboy and can't remember!) and the pan extends backward beyond the seat, you would have the same area to work with. Very easy, I did it in the garage last night and had it mounted up within 45 minutes of opening the package.
It pushes her forward quite a bit, which is exactly what she wanted (needed), but it's too far forward for me. If it were mine I would simply bend the bracket backward a little bit to conform better to the front of the passenger pillion. Backward motion is stopped by the pillion.
