Nearly 30K miles in two years, love all of it except the miles about/below 100 and 25 degrees. That leaves 75 degrees of pure enjoyment. Downside; just don't get to ride enough.

Frame Covers w/Rubber Inserts for GL1800
ITEM CODE: BB52724, SKU: BB52724

Great piece of chrome with easy install. Rubber well located to prevent heel scratches from boots; a good thought. Bling worth the bucks so far. |

Fit was much better than the front; finish is quite acceptable. After front difficulties I took extra pains to clean, heat with hair dryer, fit and secure with tape for 24 hours. After two weeks of 90 plus temps, all is well. |

So far, so good but have only about 500 miles on it and NONE of them at 75-80 mph. From reviews I did initially Loktite screws on installation. I will renew review after additional miles and opportunities to fail or not. |
Utopia Driver Backrest for GL1800 2001-2017

Great item. Practically infinite adjustability puts this way up the "Gotta Have" scale. Install took a bit but care is rewarded with a OEM look and effect. Ditto the "adjust on the fly" possibilities for road and terrain variations; also for a variety of positions for comfort. Much better on back issues than the "K" version it replaced. Bravo! Utopia. |
Kuryakyn Driver Backrest w/Storage Pouch for GL1800

Not bad, but not good either. It probably works OK if you happen to be one of the three sizes of people it is made for. Too limited on adjustability for this money. Yeah, you can bend it but should you have to bend something this expensive? Easy to install, wore well with weather but if you can't emotionally handle cutting your seat, see a shrink; you'll be happier. UNLESS you are sized for one of the three positions. |

Addendum to below. The bolt got here pretty quick; the wrong bolt. Wrong threads, wrong head, not polished. I was told repeatedly by Kur customer (lack of) service they do not have any bolts.???!!!??? I was directed to return the ENTIRE kit to the dealer for replacement. Give me a break!! Stike One, Two and Two.Five for Kuryakyn. Otherwise the parts look great. |

Time to intall; 5 minutes. Time to unwrap and get all the plastic packaging off the chrome; the rest of the night. Good Grief!; just put them in a box. Leave off the shrink wrap! Fortunately they do look good. |

Ditto Barney2025. Great look for the side with compatible pegs. First Kuryakyn flaw though; one of the hex bolts had not been hollowed out but when notified, they hustled one out to me. Gotta love great customer service! |
