This is a real nice addition to my Wing, both in style and comfort. It's a little difficult to remove but I'm over all satisfied with it and it makes the long rides a little more comfortable.

Follow up review after a few months. The mechanism for removing and locking in the backrest is miserable at best. It failed and I had to remove the nut that I thought was holding on the locking flange, but after removal of the nut, the flange stayed in place. Great, now I can't get the backrest off. I was final able to turn the locking mech. after prying it out a little bit. On the other side, the mechanism just spins around completely with no stops. I have to say, as time goes on, I become less satified with the more expensive Kuryakyn products.

This is a very easy and quick install. It helps my back and improves the comfort of the ride. I did have to change the way I mount the bike but that is getting easier with time. I would recommend this item.

Worked as advertised and did great onalong tripbut had to keep it in middle adjustment for my wife to not have leg problems. I think I will try the Utopia.

Great for riding solo. However can't figure out the "easy on/easy off". Can anyone assist with this problem?

I am glad I bought this item. Very easy to install. And works great. A must have for those long trips. GET ONE NOW!!!

great product, a must have for any rider.

I can only endorse what Tom & Doc have said. Great for the driver; can be annoying to the passenger. A must have for riding solo. The heavy chrome mounts are definitely a big plus.

Great backrest. I feel great after a ride having the support on the back. I have it adjusted to the middle setting and still the wife has plenty of room in the back. Installation is a little tricky. Take your time so you do not mess up the paint job. Cover the painted surfaces of the bike before installing.

This does the impossible, makes a Goldwing more comfortable!! I like the easy off/on because I can quickly remove it when my Lady rides or put it back on when solo. I don't have to remove it for her but I like her on my back a little bit better ;)(most of the time) I also like that it has 3 adjustments forward and back.

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.

another great kury product. takes a little getting used to. really comfotable.

If a GW isn't comfy enuf well this just made it better I'm 5'9" on the "husky side" and now I will need more fuel storage cuz I won't need to stop. Highly recommend, easy to install!

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.
