Alright all you brainiacs.....figure it out and tell us are options.  I'm really surprised Harley took this option/ability away, there's been a few comments about it in other threads, but I'm just totally miffed by it.  I depend on one for longer rides to the point where if there truly is no option, as much as I've totally fell in love with the ruby red SG, it's a deal breaker for me.

So first, those few forum members out there that have already taken delivery of one, does the provisions exist under the seat to utilize one if the seat itself is changed out ?  I'm not talking about the vertical bracket necessarily that one clips into, but the threaded attach points into the frame itself that the vertical bracket mounts to.

JCZ or someone else, I've never had or seen a Corbin seat for the streetglides, does it not require as well that vertical bracket for attachment ?

Shed some light on this you guys, if there truly is no option/solution here I'm totally blown away as my back requires one.  I'm not big and fat at 205, but I've used my back for 40 years and it likes to rest these days !!!
  i have one and it looks like you probaly could mount something behind the solo seat. so if there isnt one available now im sure there will be one made soon.

Does anyone know the part numbers for a riders back rest that works with the stock seat??

Sorry no bike pics since I am out of town but it is the Hot Citrus color.

There isn't one for the stock seat. I was at the dealer yesterday, and replaced my stock seat with a Reduced Reach seat that is WAY more comfortable anyway, and I got a rider backrest for it. I'm far too old for the stylish-but-useless little stock pan - there isn't much to it, and no way to put a backrest on it. Keeping it in safe storage though, in case I (GASP!) would EVER sell this bike down the road... not bloody likely!
