GL1800 In Seat Gold Wing Driver Backrest SUPER SALE

This was my second purchase of this backrest, and I have been absolutely satisfied with both of them. The install was very straight forward and easy, once you got past cutting the seat. This turns long rides into tireless outings. I rode my new trike home, 500 miles without a backrest, and this is the first accessory I installed. This backrest is worth the money, and will help you ride in comfort.

The supplied instructions are worthless!! Had to go to the Add-on website for a version I could see. Be very careful with the knife because it can easily come through the part of the seat where your tailbone sits. Don't ask how I know this! :o(

As others have stated, use the next size smaller drill bit than the specified 9/32.

I had a Travelcade seat with integrated backrest on my first GL1800 and this one doesn't compare. I didn't want to lose the heated seat on my new wing so I tried this option. It's functional but no where near as good.

I UNPACKED THIS BACKREST AND DISCOVERED SOME PARTS WERE MISSING,(BRACKETS)THEN WITH FUTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND THE BOTTOM OF THE BACKREST PAD WAS NOT SEWN, I FLIPPED THE POUCH UP AND DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM, THERE WAS A BIG STICKER UNDER THE POUCH "MADE IN CHINA", I AM RETURNING THIS PIECE OF JUNK AND TRYING THE UTOPIA BACKREST.

I do not have a product rating, I have a question please. Does this backrest have any fore and aft adjustment? If so, how much? Can it be adjusted by the driver while riding? Thanks ..........Bob

easy to install,they forgot to ship two bolts for back of seat,the biggest problem is having the guts to take a knife to your brand new Goldwing, after that it's all pretty easy.
