ABM vs Standard handle bar

[drsureshmohan]

Thanks to this amazing group and Chobers who kindly provided me seating position pics and I bought the whole set from Germany . Fixing is going to be another story ( perhaps after my first service ) stock handle bar is not too bad , I can manage ok , I do get a neck strain but after a few days it should be ok

I forgot to mention I’m 65 yrs so I prefer comfort

I wonder how this seating position affects the aerodynamics of the bike?

You will most likely have to change your windshield out as well....

Get a set of hard bags on the back, those bars and a higher windshield and you basically have the Suzuki version of the Concours.....something Suzuki should have made in the first place.....

They work well with the stock windshield, but you really feel the wind around your hands, arms, and windshield at high speeds.

The first ride I took on my 2023 Busa quickly became uncomfortable because my neck started getting sore but after a few rides and a couple hundred miles I'm fine riding the bike with the stock clip-ons. I did purchase the helibar riser and plan to have it installed this winter to give me a more relaxed upright riding position. I could probably install the riser myself but I don't have a lift, garage or patience so I'll just help keep the doors open at my local shop and pay them to do the install.

You don't need a lift or any kind of stand to install the riser, you can do it on the kickstand
