    Dealership looked up all parts, cross-referenced my tallboy seat. Got home and after struggling to get it all installed amazing directions :( doing the fit test before I tightened everything down the seat would not go back on all they way. It was bottoming out on the mount with like 4 inches to go to mount properly. Sorry for the Pic Pollen is in full swing in the so read more.

    Plenty of adjustment

    This is necessary to install the adjustable rider backrest pad. It comes with all necessary hardware and the instructions are clear cut. Yes, there are cheaper knockoffs on Amazon, but the quality is often questionable. I strongly recommend going with the OEM unit. This mount gives several inches of forward and aft adjustment so you can tailor the backrest to your comfort level. Installation is fairly simple; the adjustment lever mounts on the left frame down-tube right in front of the seat and the side cover and a cable runs up to the mounting bracket under the seat. This is a nice setup, it’s really worth it! read more.

    Great!

    Great backrest . Simple install. It’s sturdy, doesn’t flex when I lean against it. I own 2 of these and they are great. Lots of forward adjustability, but I do wish it had a little more backwards movement. Overall it’s a great product.

    Does not fit 2024 Street Glide

    For the money I paid for this, I should not have to alter it to fit my bike. The bracket for the selector switch does NOT fit the 2024 Street Glide. You will have to alter it to make it work.

    • It fit my 24 Street Glide without modification, and others have actually posted pictures of their 24 Street Glide's with this part installed. I've done 2400 miles since installing mine and it is wonderful.

    What is the proper mount for a 2024 FLHXSE? Will the 52300739 CVO Style Rider Backrest work with the 52596-09A Backrest Mounting Kit?
    That Guy - Mobile, AL
    • Answer:
      Hello That guy, 52300739 does not work with 52596-09A. You will need to choose from these part numbers 52300731, 52591-09A, 52501-09A,52546-09A, and 52423-09A. Thanks blairmke
  • Question:
    10/8/2024
    In the installation instructions it is mentioned that on MY24 FLHX step 3 of the install instructions needs to be skipped. Does this mean the Mounting Bracket is not used at all and Mounting Base is not bolted down?
    Peter - El Paso TX
    • Answer:
      Hello, The mounting base is bolted down, you are just not using that bracket.

    I’m trying to find the backrest mount I need for a 2024 Road Glide FLTRX (with stock seat) and the Smooth Style Adjustable Rider Backrest (Part Number: 52501-09A). Is this backrest mount the one I need for that backrest?

    My shock no longer works on my back rest. Can I buy just the shock absorber?
    Albany, Oregon
    • Answer:
      Albany yes, you can order a new shock absorber. Mine died after about eleven or twelve years and I was able to order a replacement. I had this unit on my 2010 Ultra Classic and put it onto my 2023 Ultra Limited as well. I really like this unit.
