    One of my Favorite Additions

    Has to be one of my favorite additions to my motorcycle. The addition of support has saved my back so much discomfort. Allowing me to ride for longer and more comfortably. Should have bought this a long time ago.

    Needed slight modification - aftermarket seat
    Featured H-D Dealership H-D Employee Sweepstakes Entry Verified Purchaser Top 10 Contributor Top 25 Contributor Top 50 Contributor Top 100 Contributor Top 250 Contributor
    I purchased this backrest for my '08 Sportster XL 1200 L. The previous owner had installed a Mustang seat, which caused a fair amount of trouble with this backrest. The rear of the seat has a hump that is molded with a hard material that interfered with inserting the backrest into the mounting brackets. After multiple attempts, I finally resorted to using a vice, a propane torch and friends who are stronger than I to straighten the curve of the backrest bar slightly. After a few adjustments, I was able to get the backrest fully inserted into the mounting brackets. I doubt there will be any issues with a factory seat, but you might have difficulty if you are using an aftermarket seat. read more.

    Myself and my brother attached this backrest on my 72. It took about a half hour. It made a difference riding due too a bad back.
