G'Day Stua,  just went out for an hour ride and they are worth it imho, a bit more relaxed, the wrists felt much better.  i must be more upright as 
the wind hitting my helmet seemed a bit lower down aswell, all i need to do now is get the seat a bit more comfy and the oil adapter mod.. ken

gday again stua,     had a proper test today,     dayboro,mt mee, maleny etc.   I'm really happy with them,    i just have to sort the seat because the wrists etc aren't an issue anymore,,   it seemed to magnify the numb bum as it was the only thing i was thinking off,,  apart from what a sweet bike they are and how lush the country side is,     ken

I knew you'd be happy with them Ken, :good:  For anybody in their "advancing years" whose body won't tolerate the weight on their wrists for too long, and want a more upright position, these are money well spent.

3/4 of an inch higher doesn't sound much, but when fitted makes a big difference. plus they look good with the shiny RPM caps.

Ken, that sounds like exactly what I need. A while back I reshaped my seat and while it is more comfortable than stock, it is even better if I sit back and more up right. The problem is that sitting like that is more of a stretch to the bars. I will now have to add them to my wish list
