heritage driver's backrest
#21
I'm not sure that the 09's are different from the 08's. I had the Firehouse backrest, and my wife complained. The Grasshopper looks about the same. No adjustment. I changed the whole seat and went with Ultimate. It work great. As comfortable as stock, and keeps you in the same riding position. Unlike Mustang that moves you up and back. Not cheap though.
thanks

Snapped a few.
For the price, the firehouse is nice and does the job. Moves me forward maybe an inch or so. Is a little flexable so you can lean back into it.
I've never used it with a passenger. Seems if the passenger is not skinny, they would be right on it.
I cut a piece of a leather belt to put between the metel bracket and the pass pillion because it seems it would wear into the seat after a while.
If I had the money I would much prefer the mustang set-up, but as I said, for the cost it's pretty good.

So either they are wrong (lol) or did you rig up something special to get to work with the passenger seat on?

No nothing rigged ! It fits perfect I thought at first it was kinda pricey but I think it is the best mod I have done to the bike I love it specially on a long trip. Now I think HD has 2 different passenger seats I have the touring one!!If that makes any difference!

It wasn't long after he bitched about it that the disclaimer went up on the FHC site.
