Default Passanger arm rests

Hi all, My wife and I just purchased our first Harley! It is an 08 Fatboy. We went for our first long ride yesterday, about 265 miles. Are back sides were very sore. I ordered the Sundowner seat yesterday. Hopefully it will be much more comfortable than the stock seat. My wife was wanting some arm rests... Does anyone know of any for a Fatboy?

Thanks,
Mike

Just make a simple bracket that mounts where the saddle bags mount and your all set. I dont think their is any softail with passenger armrests.

Look on the Ultimate Seat website. They make an armrest.

That may be me with the passenger armrests. The armrests are a Kuryakyn product but were not made to go on a backrest. I came up with a bracket that hooks onto the backrest and cut up the armrest brackets and bolted them together. I'm not sure what the Fatboy backrest is like or if this would work on it. I haven't seen any in any catalogs or on the net, so I can't point you in any direction there.
