'07 FLTR (Black of course)...need to find options for a passenger backrest. What's available both MOCO and other than the factory stuff?

Pics would be a major help in finding the right one...

My ol lady is too sweet to risk having slip off the back.

 

are you asking for pics other than what is offered in the HD wish book??

 

Yup...I'd like to see what they actually look like, especially anything other than the factory ones. I would think there were alternatives, but I'm not finding them.

 

I'll try to get a pic of mine posted with the backrest on. The only thing I will tell you for sure, is don't get the Short Sissy Bar (Upright). It's TOO short to be of any use, get either the medium or tall.

 

Post a pic of your sweet O'lady and I'll post a pic of my back rest...deal?

 

Pretty neat forum here...my first post and I have already added someone to my ignore list.

 

I don't know if you ever intend to add a trunk, if you do, you can get the trunk now and forget about the back rest, once the trunk is on and you start using it, you will never take it off and then the nice back rest will sit in the garage, ask me how I know this.

 

Thanks Rich...too much weight topside for my tastes. I want to try to keep it low...

Now if you happen to have a complete medium setup hanging around that you don't need...

 

You can do that? Hmmmm, just think if we all did that there would be no one left on this forum. electraRick and bryanTTM you better watch out.

 

If you decide to go with the MoCo uprights and backrest pads might I second buying either the medium or tall uprights. Also stay away from the low profile backrest pad. I have the medium upright with the leather smooth look backrest pad (51579-05)and my lady doesn't like it at all. The upright is alright and I think it keeps in line with the sleek style of my Street Glide, but the low backrest pad just doesn't sit up high enough for her likeing. I intend to buy the large oval top-stitched pad (52886-98B)for this upcoming riding season. You can see a pic of the medium height upright with the smooth look short backrest pad in my signature picture below.

Just my opinion based on my finacee's experience.
