Utopia Driver Backrest for GL1800 2001-2017
ITEM CODE: UT18MC12, SKU: UT18MC12

1 star for personal riding position, 4 stars for installation, 5 stars for quailty
| Ok installation was not the easiest thing I've done to my bike so far. This item is sturdy and well made, and is very adjustable. The metal is no-nonsense, be careful when you are drilling the seat pan for the mounting bolts. I did not care for the riding position this back rest gave me. I have had this on my bike for about 6 months now and I commute about 90 miles per day. Also I've done 14000 miles this year Almost all of which have had the backrest on. I ran with the back rest in several positions. The backrest always left me putting pressure into the handle bars, its hard to explain but it just wasn't for me. I do suggest you give it a whirl and see if you care for it. I'm 6'2" 260lbs, a stocky rugby type and I think its the geometry of my build that always left me feeling like I was sitting farther forward than I wanted to. I turned around and sold this on ebay for just about what I paid for it, so give it a whirl. It looks sharp and very sturdy, and has good resale value if you don't like it. |
