I bought one. It was "Okay". I needed to use a hammer to put on and take off. I don't use it anymore and would not buy again.

I bought the 4 point docking kit and a short back rest from eBay have know idea what brand it is but it fits great! Only complaint I have is the docking hardware didn't have the correct amount of washers. Hope that helps.

Just put on my eBay backrest. It looks fine and I saw some complaints of the thick welds but they're not bad and who's going to look at them. I don't have to hammer it on but the black clamps that go around the docking bevels is a little tight. I can live with it and assume it will get better after being taken off a few times. I bought hd docking hardware off someone for $50. Total of $150 for everything.

When your wife, girlfriend or luggage go flying off the back on the highway,

Just think about that couple hundred you "saved" on that bracket... was it worth it??

This is my biggest concern. BUT aren't the HD ones made in China as well?

I forgot that if it isn't HD it isn't safe.
