Default Adjustable Backrest install

Thinking of buying the adjustable riders backrest for an 06 Ultra, anyone got a heads up on any install issues ?

Thanks in advance

Best advice.....

Tape the nut to the wrench when installing the bracket for the lever, and use a 1/4" drive ratchet to fit in the tight quarters.....

And don't forget to Zip-Tie the cable to the main support....

like bob said the lever bracket was a little tough due to tight quarters. tape the nut to the wrench like he said,it works. just take your time. it was worth every penny.enjoy
