First, my apologies for not getting any pictures.  The friend who helped me had something else to do and I didn't want to ask him to "pose" at every step. 

The process is simple and straightforward.  Remove the plastic cover in front of the seat (it pops out, just be sure to open the left and right tank compartments).  Two screws and the seat's off.  Then we installed the T bar which is designed so there's only one way it can really fit underneath the seat.  Only small concern is keep it straight and centered.  You're drilling into plastic here so it doesn't take much. 

The scary part is cutting into the seat.  We made a line per the instructions, measured to make sure it was centered, then used the quick release patch to outline where the cut goes.  Had to use a longer bladed knife to cut down through the seat padding.  Then we just shoved the bar into the hole and were able to line up the holes in it to the T bar with no problem.

The whole process didn't take 30 minutes.  The rest comes adjusted to it's lowest point.  I'm a little over 6' 2" w/a 32" inseam and I don't see myself raising it.  The bottom hits me about 3-4 inches above my waist and the top feels like it's around the bottom of my shoulder blades.  I was able to easily adjjust the tilt on the ride home (I took 30 miles to get there and 70 to get back). 

So far I'm very happy w/the Utopia.  I leaned it back and rode w/my feet comfortably on the front tip overs and also moved it forward until I was in a "Goldwing" position.  I've got rides planned for Saturday and Sunday and will report back on how three days of riding do but of course everyone's back is different.  Sometimes I've riden 250 miles w/o it acting up and sometimes 30 miles will get it aching.

Sorry I haven't posted a review yet but I need to ride a few long days.  Last weekend I put on about 500 miles Friday to Sunday but no more than 70 miles between stops.

So far I'd rate it 4 on a 5 point scale.  It's very easy to adjust--simply take your weight off it, reach around and turn the screw.  The range of adjustment is fine--I can tilt it back and ride w/my feet on the tipovers if I want to slouch for awhile. 

Lots of support--it's a big pad.  I do wish the bottom was a little lower.  There's only about 3/4ths of an inch between the bottom of the pad and the seat so there's not much room for adjustment in that direction.  No problems getting on and off--it already feels like part of the bike to me.  I'm going to have to take it off for a couple of days and remember how she feels without it.

The only negative I've found is that unless I sit in a "Goldwing" position the backrest seems to force what excuse I have for a backside forward, leaving my scrawny rear on a narrower portion of the seat.  Appearance wise I'm fine w/it.  Looks like it came with the bike.  The "purse" on the back may be a bit much but it's handy and you can take if off if you don't like it.

My wife had surgery a couple of weeks ago so I haven't riden 2 up yet.  The friend who helped me w/the install took it w/his lady for 5 or 10 miles and she said it wasn't in her way riding but she had a bit of a problem swinging a leg over it.

This may be a stupid question but does anyone know if you can use the Saddleman backrest bag with the Utopia installed?  If I had to guess I'd say no but can't tell for sure.  That bag looks like a lot of storage, located in a good area of the bike for a decent price.
