Anyone out there know about an upcoming mounting system for backrest on an 08 ultra? \\; I'm wondering if a new backrest is also in the picture? \\; Thanks in advance.

Have you tried adjusting the screw in the back of the seat? That tilts it forward and back.

The non-adjustable backrest just doesnt fit the 08s very well I couldnt get it to fit at all. I went to the adjustable \\; and it fits perfect with a full range of adjustment.
