Just needs the bars turning back a little, re-shaped seat should be here end of next week, and Mustangs lowered pegs are on the way.
Apart from that, all is well.  :D

The 10cm higher screen works well with no buffetting.

Now i just got to go out in the garage and clean all the flies off the front  :roll:

I`ve adjusted the bars, now one last job to do. just got to find some handguards that will work with the adjustable levers.

With the TT Legend yokes i used, even with the Rox risers fitted, the bars are now about as far back as the originals, so thinking space between the handguards and top fairing will be limited.

Thinking of going back to the original levers, and use the original handguards, and have them sprayed to match  :roll:
