Can anyone provide the measurement of the post that inserts into the saddle? Length and width. I may be able to retro fit my Utopia. The saddle arrives Monday.

1.5" wide flatstock about 1/4" thick. That's what it is on my Big Boy seat.

If you bought the King, it doesn't have a port for the backrest. The King has a separate, bolt on backrest assembly that fits between the rider and passenger seats, and bolts to the fender where the passenger seat does.

And the Utopia bracket works if you have a King.  That's the combo I went with.  Utopia's backrest is much larger than Ultimate and they are the same price.

Yeah I’m getting the Low one. The Utopias post is the correct ( I’d have to cut it to length)with so if I have any ingenuity left in me I’ll see about shimming it up and see what happens. I think a remount of the whole Utopia hardware between the seats may be an option too. We’ll see. Thanks for the reply’s.

It’s the same width. Not as thick.
