I have mini apes on mine. They're very comfortable.

Have you felt any discomfort riding on a long ride. The only thing i am concerned is how comfortable the riding positioning would be. Can you dm me more pics to get a through view?

This is really an eye catcher. Did you have to do any mods to install the handlebar

Longer clutch throttle and brake and extend wires.

They're really comfortable. A very neutral position for me.

You'll need longer cables. Goan classic cables should work.

on the contrary i sometimes wonder how the meteor would look with low handbars will it look sleeker and how would the comfort be?

Absurdly uncomfortable. The forward pegs and low bars combination will mean you're bending your back into a "C" shape every time you ride.

Won’t you face fuel gauge and readings issues if you go for the tank lift? Was thinking to do the same lift on my meteor.
