Angry 2005 ultra back rest problems

Just got a 2005 ultra with standard seat, put a adjustable backrest on it and my wife has problems with it rubbing the inside of her legs. She is a small woman. Hate to ride without my back rest but like to ride with the wife also.
any help. I am 6.1 is their a better seat that would work.

I honestly don't know that anyone rides with a backrest when the spouse is on board.
