Beautify OEM looking product. Easy to install (yes even cutting the seat, follow instructions and it is a no brainer) The only item to make cross country trips tolerable! Plus so easy for riders to get on and off, unlike many of the other bar type back rests. This is the caddilac of back rests and is only fitting to be installed on a Gold Wing, much like Mastercard...Priceless! |

Put one of these on my Yamaha and had to have it on my wing as well. Easy to install and well worth the money after riding my wing without it. Even fits the Goldwing seat better then on my Yamaha. Will not have any other, great for those long rides or even the short ones. Never a tired hurting back again. |

If you don’t have one buy one. Making the cut is easy just think of your bank manager. I made two short trips since fitting the backrest and must say it’s made a huge difference. Its looks like part of the saddle. Great product, good price. |

I did quite a bit of research before buying my Utopia back rest. I didn't like the Idea of cutting the seat. But all my research poited to this being the best back rest. Well I am here to tell you that I am glad I bought this seat. It is almost like it is a continuation of the factory seat. very comfortable and solid. Doesn't croud the wife either. Note: when doing your install after you make your cut in the seat run serated knife in at a slight angle toward the front. |

I had this backrest on my 2004 and just loved it but, had to let it go with the bike on a trade-in as there was a hole in the seat. If my wife ever gets tierd of the chrome pipes on the Khromewerks back rest I will go back to Utopia. Very nice piece. |

If there were 6 stars this product would deserve it. This is the best accessories I have added so far. Looks clean and matches perfectly. Cutting thru seat is intimidating. Remember measure twice cut once. I would suffer with back pain but no more. We can ride for hours now and arrive fresh and ready for more. |

I love this product, one of the best add on I placed on my 07 Wing. If I purchase a new Wing, the first thing I would do is place this product on it. Very easy to install. Took me approximately 35 minutes. |

See the install video and detailed instructions here: https://www.goldwingfacts.com/1800Utopiabackrest.htm This backrest looks almost factory OEM. Installation was easy, but it was a little nerve racking cutting a hole in my seat. It felt awkward at first. It took me a few hundred miles before I started forgetting it was there. However, I can say that I used to have back and shoulder and neck pain after a few hours riding before. Now I can ride all day and not feel any strain in the back, neck, or shoulders. |

Wingstuff delivered at the speed of light. It took all of 35 mins to get it installed and was easier than I thought. I'd studied the instructions thoroughly online before I ordered it. Cutting the seat was far less traumatic than envisioned. The comfort level has gone up several notches, I'm well pleased. |

This is a must have! Went to Belgium just after I've bought the bike. It's 3200 km (2000 miles) back and forth. I almost went to a chiropractor when I got back. After I mounted the Utopia Backrest I've had no problems what so ever. I went on a trip to the Alps and to Italy (6500 km, 4050 miles) without any problems with my back. |
