Kind of hard to see, but there is a drivers backrest in front of the sissy bar. Harley dealer ordered it when I bought the trike. Adjustable fore and aft, up and down. Frankly I don't know how much it cost, dealer threw it in when I bought the trike.
One 'minor' problem, the adjustable bracket is for the taller Tri-Glide or Ultra seat. Backrest sits a tad high, which is OK with me.
Good Luck
I put the adjustable backrest bracket on my Ultra, and Tri-Glide. I just asked for the adjustable on the Freewheeler, don't know if they make a stationary unit. REALLY helps this old man when riding. I went without for a while, sure makes a big difference.
Screwball, I see you have the luggage rack and pass backrest. If you put a sissy bar bag on the backrest would you be able to open the trunk or would the trunk door or luggage rack hit the bag?
I am told that the adjustable rider rest mount is 54099-10 and a compatible rider rest would be 52501-09A. I want a rider rest; but, I also want a different seat as I think the stock and the current HD Sundowner are not to my liking (or, at least my butt's liking....) I kind of decided to see if HD or someone offers an alternate - I would really like one that comes with heat (live in Ohio). I love the HD air-cushion seats for the Touring models. But, the Freeheeler hasn't made the boat on that line as of this posting......
I wrote emails to both Corbin and Saddleman on the Freewheeler; Corbin replied by that the model was not supported at this time and Saddlemam never replied at all... That was sort of disappointing.
Also, I am hoping HD will maybe step up and expand their line a bit. I am sure they will offer more for the Freewheeler next year, as they sell more and continue the model on. It just that my butt and lower back will continue to nag me for a few more miles......

I read another post that said he slid forward every time he applied the brakes. You would think sliding forward wouldn't be a problem. But...While I find the Tallboy seat comfortable, I'm a little disappointed that it has no 'grip'. As soon as I sit up in it, my butt starts to slide towards the tank. Constantly battling with the back and forth...
I have to be very fortunate, I guess my butt is shaped exactly like the one used to pattern the stock seat on the Freewheeler. We took a 4000 mile ride through the South-West and I couldn't have been more comfortable. The only "mod" I did was to the backrest. After a few hundred miles I decided it was too high, so I cut the adjusting loop off, shortened the mounting arm and re-welded the adjusting loop back on. I can now adjust the backrest down to the seat, good lumbar support.
I have 2016 Freewheeler and bought bracket 52589-09A and backrest 52914-09A catalog says they won't fit trike but does and looks and works great. Took. about 30 minutes to install.
