| I watched many videos and it seemed pretty straightforward so everything went fine until I started to use my knife to cut down to seat pan There should be a Warning to make sure you have your seat level.(Like it would be on your bike ) And a warning to cut straight up and down My seat wasn't level and I came through just a hair to forward 😫 Thankfully it's in the back between the seat and the upper seat I plan on getting a seat repair kit and fixing it It is pretty much hidden Just bad luck I guess but if I had a warning I probably could have avoided it Putting that aside the back rest looks good and seems like it will work fine |

| This is the second Utopia backrest I’ve owned. It provides the best comfort that I’ve found. Shipping was fast and install was easy. Great product. |

| By far the best looking backrest out there. Easy to install using basic tools. It matches the factory seat perfectly with multiple adjustments for your comfort. |

| This is by far the best backrest for a GoldWing. It's not hard to install, and my wife loves the fact that there are no bars for her to put her legs over. Also the zippered pouch on back is handy for whatever. |

| I was concerned about cutting my seat, but after watching a few videos and reading the directions BEFORE.....it was a breeze. This backrest is awesome. No more back issues, easy to adjust, folds out of the way when needed. The wife likes the pouch to hold her “stuffâ€. And no bars to wrap your legs around..... |

This is my 2nd Backrest. Had one on my VTX 1800R and Loved it. I have had 3 back surgeries over the years and this is a much needed add on for my newly acquired 2004 Gold Wing. I also have a replacement hip so the fold down feature is a great advantage for "my" beat up frame to get my leg over the bike. Only gave 4 stars because suggested drilling locations were incorrect. It pushed the mounting bar too far down into the seat. Other than that 5 stars....great quality product and a perfect match to OEM seat. |

(Didn't mean to hit enter twice!) This works great for the Rider, as we can get maps ready and place them in the pouch along with cell phones (even with charging cords hooked to them from the trunk), gum, pens, Kleenex, etc. For the Driver, it can be adjusted in so many positions that it will help any back on a long trip. We went to Alaska last summer, and I changed out the maps as we entered different States/Provinces. Had to use maps especially in Canada, as the satellite didn't work when you are out in the middle of nowhere ! |
