I've had a Utopia backrest for about a year. I like it in many ways, but the gap between the seat rest and the support rail is open and unpadded. Last weekend I took a ride and actually came home with bruises on my lower back.

Yesterday I put a rolled towel in the space and it was a tremendous help. This is not a permanent solution, However, because it tends to fall out.

Anyone else have this problem and what have your done to solve it? Great opportunity for the manufacturer, I'm certain of that.

They sell a leather cover for this .
Just look under accessories.

I installed the backrest but - I can't get the darn stock seat to run all the way back in on its rails. Any ideas?

It goes back on the rails and then stops pretty much in the fully extended position, I need it to go all the way back.

I talked with Daryl on the phone, and I believe Daryl figured out what was hindering the installation.

1/2 Way there - just trying to get the bar on the other side to line up now. Following the instructions in order helped too Wink

Thanks for the help!
