I have decided to use protaper yamaha raptor bars.
They are a little taller, wider, and have more pull back.
My current super bike bars are 3" tall with a 3" pull back. I feel like I am riding with my arms fully extended and have trouble looking around.

Thanks Mark!

So now I'm thinking about a chrome front fender. I looked at the one at Klasmos, It's ok I guess. $246 and I'm not in love with it. It does not even cover much, mounting it to the usd forks may look bad in the end. I guess a modified ninja fender could work. I want chrome!!!!! :side: The zx9 fender looks like a birds beak.

Chrome won't get ya home and 'cruisers' don't race; the 9 fender is plastic...get yer dremmel out and make it look the way you want it to look.
Keep posting, you're doing good!

PS> you'd sure look funny dragging your knee on a chromed-out bike!

it is easy to drop the tank down just cut of the mounts and drop them down 1/2 or 3/4 of an inch and remount them. idid that on my little drag bike.
