In this 15th installment of Rick's Reviews, WingStuff.com's President and Founder Rick Arnoldo shares his thoughts and insights on the Utopia Driver Backrest for the GL1800 Honda Goldwing.
About this product:
Proudly Made in USA, The Utopia Backrest is the Original High Quality In Seat Style Backrest designed for and fits any year GL1800 Goldwing motorcycle, including the heated seat version and the 2012 - 2017 GL1800. This is the new version of the backrest and is made with non-dimpled material.
Utopia is the Driver backrest that becomes a part of your seat. No bars in the way of drivers hips and legs or passengers legs. Folds forward to ease passenger getting On or Off and adds to safety by getting out of the way in sudden stops. Includes up and down height adjustment, as well as driver seating position, back and forth, to help driver sit upright to avoid slouching--a big factor in driver fatigue.
Backrest pivots at top of bar as you lean against it so no uncomfortable edges dig into your back. Well padded, but only 1-1/2 thick which takes up less seating room than most other backrests. All Top Bars are finished in a Beautiful Black Powder Coat. Comes with handy pouch with strap to convert to shoulder bag. Hand made in USA.

I put one on my 2005 and absolutely love it. Quality is amazing and its just a game changer for the over all comfort of the bike.
Thanks for your comment!
Great review - thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I've been riding with my Utopia for about a week now. I love it. I'll ride my 2010 GL1800 cross country next week so I'm happy to have the backrest.
You will be so happy you installed it by the end of the trip! Thanks for your comment.
Good review and good timing as I have a seat with the Utopia installed and am going to swap it onto my bike after viewing this review.
GLAD YOUR STILL DOING VIDEO ON GL1800 NOT EVERYONE IS BUYING THE NEW WING
Chapter K-2 The last generation gl1800 will live a long time there’s a lot of them out there ✌️
Yes Rick still loves his 2012 GL1800 and will continue to ride it as well as his 2018. Thanks for commenting!
What about water entry into the 'slice"?
I have always swung my leg to the rear of the bike. due to being a big guy. With this back rest in the folded down position. Will it hinder this at all? Also, where can I find the Goldwing jacket that the rider was wearing in the video?
Hey thanks for your question. It's hard to know for sure until you have the backrest installed, but I would imagine if you are a taller rider you shouldn't have an issue when the seat is down. We haven't heard any feedback to this effect from any of our customers. The jacket in this video has unfortunately been discontinued. It's Rick's favorite jacket and was a popular seller for us when it was available.
Kind of weird with the imaginary interviewer shooting style...
At this point why don't you just drive a car? Sheesh...
