wflthree Posted August 14, 2012 #1 Posted August 14, 2012 I had a chance to ride two up this weekend since I upgraded my clutch with kit from Skydoc. I synced my carbs with a vacuummate using the procedure I found on this site. My bike is running great now. Had a small backfire when decelerating. I found a set of factory pipes with tips that I put back on the bike. I think it had Highway hawks on it although I could find no markings on them. Sounding like my bike was over taching when going down the interstate at 80. Now it just purrs along. Ordered a Utopia backrest today after reading about them on here. Best 12 bucks I've spent.
Phoneman1981 Posted August 14, 2012 #2 Posted August 14, 2012 Hello: Welcome to the site. Best $12 I spent also. Many modifications to my 05 RSTD. These guys will spend your money!!!!
alwrmcusn Posted August 14, 2012 #3 Posted August 14, 2012 Big thumbs up for that Utopia backrest! Love mine!
wflthree Posted August 14, 2012 Author #5 Posted August 14, 2012 It is due to be shipped on Sept 10. Looking forward to putting it on. Bike has a backrest with two bars that you ca n just pull off but can't adjust. Looks more like a sissy bar that someone added on. Glad to see the Utopia on here. Looks like the backrest on my Dad's Road Glide but for half the cost.
XV1100SE Posted August 14, 2012 #6 Posted August 14, 2012 I have the Utopia too but have been finding that it keeps tilting further back. Think the stop screw is loosening up. I picked up some nuts and tightened that down so it won't back out any more.
