I put my backrest from my 04 onto my 08 and it had bolted right up. They changed with the 09 frame.

Feeling helpful. Did a search in the for sale section and found this. $20.00 for the mount. Can't beat that.

The rider backrest brackets are still the same for 09-up, they just include a small extra bracket that the forward support bracket bolts to.

This is the installation instructions ... it also lists the parts needed for the bracket. Hope this helps. http://www.harley-davidson.com/en_US...ts/-J04734.pdf

Alot of guy sell their bike with the bracket still attached.I dont think these brackets are very expensive...$25-$30 new so that would be an EZ option.
