But after a lifetime of racing bikes it just doesn't feel natural to me sitting upright and is no good for my back either .
So I will have a crack at making some old style salt racer bars which will be low but swoop back along beside the tank so reach is not so far . Should be a good compromise between upright and racer crouch and make the bike look more old school , along with the seat , which is the style I am going for .
I do miss my R1 ....

@Ftx in that case you may enjoy what I looked at before I got my Katana....Sol Apollo....
