RE: driver Backrest
I've owned several different backrests. For the money the manual one is fine. The adjustable one with the hard mounted lever is nice but the mounting flange over time falls apart. For me with all of the backrests they don't lean far enough back. I have to heat them up and bend them for some added room.

I have the adjustable one on my ultra. I like changing posistions while on a long ride. That's why it's adjustable. I don't just set it and forget.

I have the adjustable HD comfort stitch on my RKC. I have no complaints about it. Bought mine forabout $230 from Zanotti's.

RE: driver Backrest
I had both Harley backrests and did not like either one. They both pushed me ahead too far. My suggestion is going with a Mustang seat with their back rest. I am sure happy with this set up.
