I put these boards on along with Kuryakyn risers for my 5' tall wife. The two positions allow her to adjust her riding position on long trips making her more comfortable. Kuryakyn could have dome a little better in providing a complete kit and in the design of the board. First, having to disassemble the factory board to remove and reuse the springs and ball bearings is ridiculous. Second, when the boar is up, the pegs flop around. They should be designed to lock in both the up and down positions, and not be loose on the boards. 5 stars for looks and function, 3 stars for installation ease (completeness) and design, 4 stars overall. |
| I installed these in order to accommodate my vertically challenged wife. At 5' tall the factory board location was a little too low for her. These worked great. I installed some Kuryakyn boards at the same time, and the installation of the risers was a breeze. Well made and nicely plated. |
| I originally installed the Kuryakyn backrest and loved it - but my wife, not so much. She complained that the chrome bars on the Kury backrest were wide enough to make her sitting position uncomfortable (at 5' tall she has shorter legs than some other ladies might). I reluctantly took off the Kury backrest and installed the Utopia, and now we're both happy. I have great back support and my favorite passenger is more comfortable - and remember, "Happy wife, happy life". |
| Very nice bag - well designed and constructed. It has a lot of storage space and fits nicely on my Kuryakyn rack. The rain cover is a nice addition and stores neatly out of the way when not needed. |
| I received this as a birthday gift and it's a nice addition to the bike. It has several tools the factory kit does not have, and some really practical additions like duct tape and bailing wire. I'm hoping that my use of this will be to aid others, and not do my own repairs, but it is nice to have in case I need it on the road. |
| It works, kind of. It doesn't fit well using the kit as designed for the rear of my 2010 trunk. It's a loose sloppy fit. I moved it to the from and drilled out a space with a nut holder on the front side of the trunk to attach the plastic "brackets". Better, but still not great. I'm glad I didn't spend a lot of money on this net. |
| Wow! My wife loves these. They definitely are worth the time to install. And installation was straightforward even though it takes a while to get them in place. I didn’t experience the problems that others have referenced with brackets not fitting. Mine almost fell right into place. It is a little bit of a challenge doing this alone as you find yourself reaching and drilling some odd/blind places. I had a little bit of a challenge setting the tension on the rotating portion of the armrest to balance ease of opening with a secure feeling for my favorite passenger, but with a few adjustments they are working well. |
| Great idea and a good product. I like the function, looks and that it's made of stainless and not aluminum for durability. Installation was a snap - 20 minutes - and it went together easily. |

I installed these on my 2010 Wing. A simple plug and play set of connectors would have made the installation much easier. Both Wingstuff and Kuryakyn tech folks stumbled on this and I bought, and returned, two sets of connectors I was told would work, but didn't. They are adequate at night because they are bright. They are ineffective during the day because they are too far recessed into the mirror housing to be seen by other motorists. The photos show them sticking out of the housing far enough to be seen, but if your mirror was adjusted to that position, you'd likely be looking at your passenger, and not the traffic around you. In hindsight, I wished I had spent the money on the in-mirror signals from Muth. |
| Nice compact compressor. Case fits well in the saddlebag and the compressor works well in a pinch or for that quick top off on the road. |
| This is a nice combo kit. Less than buying the items separately and this wrench has what is needed to do the job. |

Me and a friend purchased these together and installed on each of our bikes one weekend. WOW! all the reviews are true to form. These things are awesome. Nice and smooth ride. I honestly don't care if they do make the tires last a little longer. I'm glad I have them for what they do for the ride and the feel of balance in the ride. Just like others have already said before me, "It's like your riding on rails". The cornering is another thing that surprised me. Very nice, smooth. The feeling of wandering at times is gone. VERY Happy and Please with this purchase. Thanks go out to Centramatic and Wingstuff!! Great Product. David |
