Hi Gary & Julie....welcome to the BA forum! Sounds like you got on nice deal on your new BA too...(sic: really low miles!!!) Kieth's right.... Quote:
....it can take a bit to 'dial' it in to fit you just right. Bars, risers, and adjustments thereof can all play an important role is making it right for you.
My BA had 12" mini apes on from the previous owner when I rode it home & they felt good esp. on the highway. I put the stock bars w/ risers on & rode for about a week but didn't like the stock bars at all (stiffness in my shoulders after a long ride). Got a set of 10" apes and rode w/ those for the rest of the year & they were great, but after a recent spill went back to 12" apes for better control (the 10's were too narrow in the center & made handling really flickable).
