 Backrest
I traded my 2012 RTL for a 2019 RTL. My 2012 had a Show Chrome backrest. I had no issues with it, maybe not as solid as the Can Am driver backrest I installed on my wife's 2018. It seems the Can Am rest pushes me ahead, resulting in less legroom. I did adjust the Can Am rest which is an improvement but still a bit cramped. I really think the Can Am rest is bulky and not very attractive, the Show Chrome is more visually appealing. Are there any other brands out there other than Can Am and Show Chrome?

On my 2014 I opted for a Utopia, it is the one that offers the most adjustment for the fit, and it is the same model of the backrest of the passenger.

 I had a Utopia backrest on my 2011 RT seat. I then put a 2014 comfort seat on the bike and put the same backrest on it and it fit perfectly.

Does the Utopia backrest for the RT fold forward like it does for the Honda Goldwing aiding in passenger entry? I had a Utopia on my 2003 GW and loved it....
