I am looking for a backrest for a 2007 Electra Glide Classic. Anyone have any advise on what kind??

 

I got the fixed one for my SG (here) and love it. I didn't think I would move it after I got it where I liked it. JMHO. Of course you would need a different one for your ECG (seat pattern)Hope it helps. But whatever you choose you'll be glad you did.

Ride safe.

 

I have a h-d that matches the seat works well.

 

I took the one I had on the Road King when I traded it for my Ultra. Doesn't match, but nobody can see it most of the time. Get the adjustable one.

 

I have to agree with porterjet. Get the adjustable HD unit. It is comfortable and on long trips allows for easy changing of position during the ride.

 

Ditto on the HD unit!

 

I got the adjustable comfort stitch adjustable backrest from HD for my EGC and I love it. It was easy to install and you can adjust it on the fly. You can get it online for 20% less than advertised on the HD site.






Ride well,

Jim

 

Yup, that's the one I have. I wasn't sure if I would use the adjustment feature on the fly, but on longer rides, I do.

 

I have the Harley non adjustable and just love it.
It's actually fairly adjustable , just not "on the fly" with a screw in the bottom/rear of the backrest.
Bought the comfort stitch and it still matches my new Mustang seat pretty well too.
If I had to do it again , I'd probably go with the Mustang backrest , but it's just a preference for me.
Once you have a backrest , you probably won't ride without one ever again.
Good luck.
