Good product. Works for me in first position and I'm 5'11" and 220 lbs. 4 stars because it's pretty pricey. OTOH - I just made a 1,600 trip and couldn't have ridden it w/o the backrest! |

I like the backrest... it fits me well in the center position, and hits just right on my back... The wife, however, isn't as complimentary of this accessory... if she puts her feet up on the high point of the transformer boards, it is comfortable... but when she moves them down to the standard board height, the frame of the backrest rubs on her inner thighs and is very uncomfortable... Glad I have the transformer boards, or I would have to toss the backrest... As it is, I'm looking for something different that won't cause her discomfort. |

Not bad, but not good either. It probably works OK if you happen to be one of the three sizes of people it is made for. Too limited on adjustability for this money. Yeah, you can bend it but should you have to bend something this expensive? Easy to install, wore well with weather but if you can't emotionally handle cutting your seat, see a shrink; you'll be happier. UNLESS you are sized for one of the three positions. |

I usally love Kuryakyn products and the jury is still out...but two things at 5'10" it hits me high in the back and there is no support in th lumbar region. Like other it sits me too straight up with no adjustmetn to tilt it back. Secondly as careful as I have been moving it to adjust it some chrome has already chipped. 3 stars for now. I'll have to look for some lumbar support if I keep this on the wing. |

BOUGHT MY IN FEB. OF 2008. PUT OVER 3,000 MILES ON IT AND LOVE IT. I HAD TO BEND IT BACK ALTHOUGH. MADE ME SIT FOWARD TO MUCH. IF YOU HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM JUST SIT ON IT AND PUSH IT BACK TILL IT FEELS RIGHT. THAT WILL WORK. |

Love it! This is very comfortable! I didn't like the idea of cutting holes in my seat! With this one, I didn't have to. It can be removed in less that 30 seconds when my wife wants to go with me. Worth the money! |

Bought this when I bought my 07 wing. I bought the bike in Searcy, Arkansas and drove it to HSV, Alabama. Very comfortable. |

Won't say it's the worst backrest I ever leaned back on but it's by far not the nicest either. Even with it adjusted to the very back position it still pushes me forward. I've tried all three positions and all of them are not comfortable to say the least. Great quality and looks though. |

I didn't want to cut my seat, so I opted for a bolt-on. I wish I'd made this one of my first purchases.. I waited far too long to put this on my bike! This item really helps with long distance back strain. I gave this four stars because I can no longer mount my bike by swinging my leg back over the seat; now I have to bring my leg forward and over. |
