Utopia Driver Backrest for GL1800 2001-2017
ITEM CODE: UT18MC12, SKU: UT18MC12
Bought this before I even had my bike home, worth every penny
| Super easy installation, just take your time as you will have to cut into your seat. Once I had it installed it felt great. Swings forward to get out of the way for me and my passenger to get on, very adjustable and comfortable. |

Nice backrest
| The product itself is well-made and suits the bike perfectly. I gave it three stars as I found the installation, particularly lining the two plates up, more challenging than the instructions and popular videos that I watched suggested it would be. Also the bolt supplied to connect the backrest to the inserted plate was to large in diameter for the sleeve. Now that its installed it looks awesome on my bike. |

| This fit my 2002 Wing perfectly. Very easy to install. I’m 6’3”. This fits me perfectly and helps my back issues. You can also fold the seat forward and bring your leg over it mount and dismount the bike. Great feature!! |

Easy to install and looks great
| Installed it last week and the install instructions were easy to follow. Have not rode the bike yet for comfort yet, but sitting on it, it feels comfortable |

Eases back pain
| I purchased the backrest to support my back after a weekend of walking on concrete all day. This made my trip home much more comfortable and supportive. I do wish it had an option to quickly remove if needed. |

Great backrest!
| Holy cow!! What a difference the Utopia backrest has made! Before I had the backrest, a half hour ride and my middle back would start to hurt. I installed the backrest (easy) and did a 200 mile ride the next day with no pain!! |

Great product!
| Installation was pretty straightforward. There are a couple install videos on YouTube that help. Chris Caliente and Cruiseman show some helpful tips that aren’t as easily caught on the provided instructions. Cutting the foam with a serrated knife took longest due to being super-cautious. Need to point the knife blade towards the left side of the bike to avoid heated seat wires. Once done and a couple of adjustments during my first ride and this thing is awesome! I’d recommend it. |

Awesome seat!
| I ordered the seat from Wingstuff after watching several YouTube videos and from the recommendation from a riding partner.I had the dealership install it while my bike was there for new tires and I can honestly say this backrest is one of the best purchases I have ever made.My back was bothering me during long rides and now having something to lean back on I can already tell a huge difference….great quality and great company to deal with!! |

Utopia Backrest for GL1800
| This is my third Utopia backrest. I have thoroughly enjoyed and have been completely pleased and satisfied with this product from when I purchased my first one, now nearly 20 years ago. Today, I just installed on on my brothers GL1800 trike. He loves it. Simply said: a great product! |

So far, more than meets expectations
| I read the reviews and watched the YouTube videos before ordering this backrest. The installation went as described by so many others. Actually, not as big of a deal as I had anticipated. If I were to install it again from scratch, I would have angled the knife just slightly closer towards to the plastic seat pan (so the cut hit the seat pan just slightly higher), but it works perfectly and totally meets my high expectations. I also like that it's color and styling match the original seat perfectly. |
