Easy to install... Easy on the back... Increased control of bike while driving.
By Michael W. Carter
I thought this would be "neat" to have. I thought it would add additional comfort while riding long distances. I thought, hell, if the rider had a backrest, shouldn't I (the pilot) have one too?!

Well, I installed it, adjusted the seat according to my riding comfort (forward) after the first test drive, then drove it around locally for a little while. I indeed enjoyed the experience, though, hadn't been able to drive hours to see if it would make a difference in comfort over the long-haul.

This weekend, I had been experiencing lower back discomfort every morning. I decided to ride my bike to a conference only 40 minutes from my house. Though I as experience lower back discomfort, IMMEDIATELY, while riding the bike, my back was fully supported and the lower back discomfort was completely relieved! As soon as I got off the bike, once again, I felt the discomfort in my lower back (bummer).

I simply could not believe the relief and suppo rt this backrest provided. While driving, it feels as though I'm in a cockpit of a fighter jet. The entire experience of riding is different. I am noticing I need to make a few adjustments/considerations to my riding style. For example, being slightly forward, I was having a tendency to somewhat push on the handlebars while driving straight and thus, having a slight effect on my steering in corners. After recognizing this, I was able to make the cognizant/physical adjustment on how I was interacting with the handlebars. I feel much more in control of the bike while driving overall. I no longer have to grip strongly to support myself during fast acceleration. The backrest does all the supporting, allowing my hands to more freely control the clutch, throttle and steering during acceleration.

Final thoughts; I love this addition/upgrade to my bike! I would never go back! This is a well developed/designed accessory that is extremely affordable and easy to in stall. I would recommend to anyone who desires an instant upgrade in pilot comfort and support as well as increased control of their bike under any circumstances/situations.

Great additional comfort for the already comfortable Goldwing.
By Michael A Beitscher
The backrest is very comfortable, looks great and was a snap to install. I recommend this backreast to anyone with a Goldwing who wants to ride in additional comfort.
