This is the 1st thing I bought for my new Goldwing. Every rider needs some form of backrest. This works well for me on the 3rd slot. Sure has made a difference going to the store or on a long trip. I couldn't live without a back rest. My wife has gotten use to the support rubbing her legs - got use to it but still dosen't like it. ( Everything looks good on a Goldwing ) |

I have a backrest on my GL1100 when I bought an 1800 this was the first thing I added. Easy to install great for a passenger to get on. I only wish it went back a little further. |

I'm 6'4" 280lbs and naturally you'll feel a bit more restricted than without the backrest, but I find that the far back setting is just fine. Feels like you're sitting in a sports car. If you want to adust, my machinist neighbor says "no problem" with bending back a bit more. The high qualifty chrome finshing should not flake off if bent, unlike cheaper chrome jobs. Have a pro do it though. |

I love it (keeps you in place when you nail it, hehe). But the wife complains about her legs rubbing the exposed bars (hence 4-stars). Also tends to rub corners of seat when moving forward. Does have a small zipped storage pouch on back side for wifeys necessities. Has 3 course position settings. I use the rear most setting (as shown in pic at above). All in all it looks good and feels great. Mine was dealer installed. |

Easy to install, looks good. 3 position adjustment isn't quite enough. I'm not a tall rider and I'm useing the rear most adjustment. I can see I'll have to remove the brakets and bend one side out, the backrest bar is catching on one of the seat "ears" I'm afraid of wear or a rip if I leave it that way. |

Essential. A back back rest I know saved me from a broken back on my old 1983 Interstate years ago. I was slammed from behind at a stop light. when I got off the bike, the half inch solid bar was bent in half. This is always a top three add on any bike, and this one is great, I do wish it was more backward adjustable. |

IT WAS SIMPLE AND EASY TO INSTALL BRACKETS. A LITTIE BIT OF A PAIN TO INSTALL AND REMOVE. YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL NOT TO SCRATCH BIKE. THE WAY IT PIVOTS FORWARDS HELPS PASSENGER GET ON AND OFF BIKE. I HAVE HAD BACK SURGERY AND WILL NEVER HAVE ANOTHER BIKE WITHOUT ONE. THE QUALITY IS TOP NOTCH |

Didn't buy this from Wingstuff but wish I had (cheaper than the dealer). This is a excellent item to add to your bike if you plan any long distance riding. It was the first thing I added to my bike and love it. It installed pretty easily. Very nice!! |

Just installed the Kury back rest to my ‘07 Wing. Best accessory you can add, fantastic for the long road trips extremely comfortable for the in town jaunts. Design of the back rest definitely complements the Wing style. Very easy installation. Highly recommended. |

I have this backrest on my 2007 Wing. The black vinyl cover compliments the seat design by Honda. The flat bar mount, aid's creature comfort for my passenger's legs, by not being in the way, like another backrest tubular mount does. For me, the Kuryakyn backrest is really steadfast. There's 3 positions for you to choose, I used the middle. Really comfortable, feels like it should be there, part of your overall comfort. |

I my opinion there is nothing needed more on a Goldwing than this product. I will never ride without one of these again, you won't either once you've tried it. This is worth EVERY PENNY. Highly recommend regardless of you're riding style, long distance or just short hops this is really great. |

Great looking and easy to install, just be careful when mounting back rest not to rip leather. I love the way it folds down for passenger to mount bike |
