I vote the very first one, with the blue checkered flag.

Love the bike. I think it would look best without badges. Also can you fit a passenger on that seat?

[@OakInch]

You might be right about the badges. I have actually stuck a couple on and removed them. None of them have been an improvement. I might have to keep looking. No badges has more of that classic barn-find cafe racer look that I am going for. You probably could take a passenger, but it would be a tight squeeze. The driver would have to be right up against the tank. I find that when I am on the freeway, I slide a little further back on the seat as the wind holds me up. It is really a single seat. The bike actually seems smaller than stock after the mods. You really use a lot of that space. Also, the full length tail tidy/rear hoop I am using might not be load bearing enough to seat a person on the back. Seat and hoop are both from MK Designs India. The hoop is the full length version, not the shorty.

ok not keen of any of the stickers but guess if you have to i would pick built like a gun one

[@OakInch]

I pretty much agree with that. I think it needs some kind of raised metallic emblem and not another sticker, if I am going with a brand badge.

[@ruahinesrider]

You can get raised badges bro not stickers on the most common is the round green & white R.E Redditch badge that sticks on like a sticker but it's raised like a badge.

Did you get some better risers Alex or you just used the $50 one's with bubbles or go back to stock.Tec has some 30mm risers with Tec written on them look good too & cheaper than Motone one's but Motone one's are up & overs.

@@ruahinesrider i put the cheap Indian made ones …they are up and over style kinda like motone ones. i feeling after only 2 hours riding that it has changed my cornering, i need to go and ride my normal route i do here on the Gold Coast Qld …think im close to deciding on keeping them or ordering motone up and over ones which look way better made item. im close to 6 foot tall …feel im riding a off road style bike

[@ruahinesrider]

@@Alex-io6ky Being 6ft tall I would go for the Hitchcocks one's if I was you as they are 30mm up & 20mm back & as you said like the stock with no logo.Being as tall as you are the height is the most important & 30mm up & 20mm back will help with comfort immensely.I am 5ft9 & noticed the 25mm up & 25mm back straight away with a more relaxed riding style & for me especially the 25mm back gave me more bend in elbows & sit slightly further back & the height helped too & you can see the clocks better & it also allowed me to fit Yss fork upgrade too as stock bars in the way & have to be moved up at least to fit but back as well will make fitting Yss in future,if you own a gt Yss won't be a problem.Motones will look better but for you practicality is what you need so the Hitchcocks 30mm up & 20mm back is better as the extra.5mm up will make riding ergonomics more relaxing & also save you half the money if you were to get Motone & the Hitchcocks one's look really good & their will be no bubbles on their one's.In the future if there is 3-4 models to choose from never get the cheapest one always go for one or two up from the cheapest.You will absolutely love it being able to relax your arms & sitting further back will also help with your legs by having extra length all because of the up & overs & also if you still want more leg room you can get adjustable foot pegs to lower pegs a inch.
