| I pondered the cheaper solutions in GL hitches, debated what I really needed and what would be nice to have, talked to Honda service technicians to see what hitches they would prefer to work around. All reviews came back the same, including the Honda service techs. The Bushtec V2 is a great way to go. I did the install myself one afternoon, and other than the swing-arm side lower nut (PITA) everything just fell into place. The Isolation wiring harness that came with my kit was a dream to install, the hitch is very secure with only two points of contact on the subframe, and four points of contact on the main frame. I've used it with the Rivco cooler rack and a Buchtec Turbo+2 trailer and this hitch works like a charm and is very stable. The ability to remove the center section really helps the techs in removing the rear tire, which makes them happier and saves me some money on service time. ;-) I am very pleased with this product! |

| Unfortunately these didn't arrive in time to run with us on our big trip (so far) this year, so I can only tell how they've performed on smaller overnight trips around my area. I'm very pleased with these bags and have had no problem getting them to fit where they need to. A great price and very durable material, two thumbs way up. |

| Works like a charm to tote around a smaller (12 pack-ish) cooler. My original plan was to use this rack in two places, on the bike hitch and then purchase the extra coupler for the home built trailer to fit it in the tongue. I don't need that now since I landed a good deal on a trailer with a large cooler attached, but I'm keeping this rack around for those times when I don't feel like hauling the big cooler. ;-) Very sturdy, doesn't wiggle, performed like a champ on a 1,000 mile trip. I honestly forgot it was back there half the time. |
Deluxe Luggage Rack Bag w/Rain Cover

| I picked this up for our March trip down to the Gulf Coast, approximately 1,000 miles round trip. This bag worked like a dream. I didn't pack it heavy, just put rain gear, cold weather ski pants and the bike's overnight cover in it, then threw some extra gloves for whatever temps might come my way. There was plenty of space for my gear and my wife's, and we still had room to spare. The Velcro straps are like vice grips, once you have all 6 straps secure it's not moving. I've done a couple of local trips since then and still love this bag; it really frees up the normal cargo area for the 3 pc luggage set. ;-) |

| Thanks to WingStuff for giving a couple of hundred off on this product. It took a couple of hours to install, and if you look around on the net you can find pictures to help if you're having trouble finding exactly which cluster of wires to plug into. Honestly, drilling the hole in the trunk was the hardest part for me since I didn't have anything large enough, but a bit of work with the largest bit I had soon had a hole to get the wires through, and all the work was done without removing the trunk. Once all of the wires were connected and the body parts put back in place, the bike saw the CB and it works like a charm. |

| Easy to install and really fits the look of the original seat. My wife loves the lack of mounting bars digging into her legs, and adores the velcro bag with the carry handle for toting around her extras when we're on the road. As long as Utopia keeps this backrest available, I can't see ever wanting anything else. |
