cant wait to see it.

thx - tin

Boy, add me to that list who wants a back rest, I actually really like the factory  seat, it just needs the back rest. Very interested in the progress here.

I have contacted Dan so I should be on the list!  Hope it turns out well.  Kind of a strange detail where the passenger pad (pillion) overhangs the riders seat so will be interesting to see how that works.

I think most of us are in the same boat, like the seat want a back rest or need it. I did not want to buy a whole new seat just for a back rest because I don't like the design of the ones HD has to offer. Dan will be happy if this is a hit for us CVO owners.

The Road king has the same seat as the Road Glide and the Street Glide. We all have the same problem, no back rest. I had this fixed as well as many others on this site. Call Seth at Auto Originals in Farmington. 505-327-1078. He can fix you up. Very good work and very reasonable price.

Any updates?

Hi.....I emailed Dan at bitchin and he replied that they are expecting to have the back rest available come Feb. 1st.

Hello to all!!!
I'm new to the CVO thing and site.  I just received my 2013 CVO RoadKing 110 Anniversary, and would like to know HOW DO I STOP ALL THE WIND IN MY FACE.  The windshield looks good but OMG!!! 

Also, thanks for the tip on the drivers back rest.  I've got 14' apes and tend to lean back more than not, so maybe this will help.

From what I have found, if your over 5'11" you do not stop the wind with the factory shield.  I am 6'1" and no mater where its adjusted I still get lots of wind. 

I put 2350 miles on mine in two weeks.

What 14" apes are you running? 

I have 14" Paul Yaffee Monkey bars on my CVO Road Glide.  Thinking about them or maybe even 16" on my CVO King

I'm 6'0" and had to order an OEM Road King Classic windshield. Also I ordered a solo HD seat with a back rest.

Just sent my factory seat off to Auto Originals in Farmington NM to have a rider back rest installed on the seat, gel put in the seat and the pillion modified to work with the rider back rest.  Should have it back in a couple weeks.  I will be off shore at work when it gets back, so about 5 weeks until I can try it out.

Weather/Roads permitting - I will be going to Denver this weekend where Dan (Bitchin Stichin) will be attending the Colorado Motorcycle Show and Swap Meet.  He will have the backrest there and will have one waiting for me.  From what I understand it attaches to the two seat mounting studs (same as where the back of the seat attaches) and will be adjustable fore/aft and will fold forward for easy mount/dismount. No seat modification required. In Dan's words "nothing short of genius".  Looking forward to it.

can't wait to see it along with cost.  tough to visualize how it would be secure with the one mount point.

Any news about the driver back rest your ordered?
