My right hand has been going numb so I bought some risers off Ebay. Wow, what a difference! The bike is a lot more comfortable. I could probably do a lot more distance now. All I had to do was clip off the straps holding a couple wires to the bar...didn't make any difference to the other controls.

Now to just get that windshield installed and throw on some bags. Maybe a jet kit...
