Honda GL1800 2001 through 2017

Trip saver

I bought a 2014 Gold Wing for my Alaska trip this summer. After 150,000 miles on my last 2 Gold Wings with Corbin seats and backrests this was my first Wing with just a stock seat. Needles to say the comfort was not there for a 23 day, 9,000 mile trip. I needed a backrest fast so i ordered the Utopia, it was delivered very fast. The install was easy enough, but took a bit of nerve to cut the seat for the install. Once i got over that, all went smooth. The backrest was a real trip saver for me. If i wasn't comfortable on a 90 mile ride with the stock seat, how could i make 9,000 miles? The answer? Utopia. Long story short, this was probably the best purchase I've made for my Alaska trip. Comfort was fantastic for all 9,000 miles over just 23 days. We averaged nearly 400 miles per day with 2 days over 700 miles. The utopia completely transformed my stock unconformable riding position into a well supported riding position. . Amazing.

The best backrest period.

Had one on my 2006 Wing, one I modified to fit a Super Tenere, and just put one on my 2016 Wing. Major back saver.

Worth the $$

The transformation this backrest makes is unreal. I was just about to sell my bike and tried this
