    Comfort mainly take some pressure of my neck and back. Missis likes the odd trip to the beach ect but the roads are pretty bad around here.Also I'm alot happier doing wheelspins.

    I should just get another bike but I'm not owning 2 road bikes and nothings caught my eye for along while apart from short people with umbrella's.
    For me I find the sc59 easy to live with it does alot very well despite being a superbike, I think bars will take me from 1k a year to 8k

    I installed Heli Bars on my 2017 CBR1000RR. It made a difference, but they are not quite handlebar height. the cables (for brakes and clutch) were at the limit of range.

    With a bar conversion, you may need some custom parts, and something like Renthal bars. You will definitely need a longer clutch cable.

    I have pics, I'll dig them out if you are interested.

    Thanks Saqid.
    I've already got the Giles varobars that my mate talked me into over the bar conversion. It's better than standard but not really enough for me.
    Don't mind the work, just want to enjoy the best I can.
    Cheers Broadie
