Utopia is the top. I have one and it's awesome.

I have a Mustang saddle on my other Vision and their backrest is good too... Just smaller. But you have to use their seat.

The cheapest is Grasshopper. I've never had one and have seen both good and bad reviews. Mainly they can bend if you're a larger guy.

Good luck bending the Utopia or Mustang.

I'll toss in a pic when it's not raining. Going on a ride Saturday to La Grange, so that'll be a good time to take one. I have the bag attachment on it, and it covers up the metal bracket. I also went to Tractor Supply and got a 1/4" pin to use as a quick disconnect, in case I don't want to have it along or to just stow it in the trunk for a bit.

I just bought a vision a few months ago, first thing I asked was this question here :) I went for the Utopia backrest, it was the most recommended and I love the thing. I've got short legs but a LONG torso, so finding a proper backrest is a pain in the ..., this thing is big, adjustable, and fits perfectly. And the lil water safe zipper pocket on the back is handy. Loving it.

Rode to La Grange on Wednesday this week to get lunch at Reba's. Stopped off at Weikel's for some great Kolaches. Weather and traffic were perfect. Weather cool, sunny and dry. Traffic non existent. If you were going on Sunday, I'd go with you. Saturday I have to work. Enjoy.

Ended not going down there, and instead went to our local waffle breakfast stop. The daughter was not up for a cold ride. BUT: if I head down there in the near spring future I will drop you a heads-up to go on a Sunday.

That's not the Blanco court house, the parking is different. Which one is that? And, yes, to let me know if you're out and about. See if we can get together. I am slowing down at work, so on certain days during the week I might ride out somewhere for lunch to a place I haven't been.. Joes in Fayetteville has good lunch specials on Thur. and Fri. Luling has the City Market for barbaque.

The pouch unzips so you can remove it as well. They are very well made and match the seat perfect.
