For me, the height and arm distance are just right, and I like the look. The control is very good as well. In years gone by, I had a VERY SHORT set of drag bars on my Goldstar and that was not easy to control unless you just went straight down the roas.

As far as removing the fuel switch in order to get the tank off ... depends on the Bike ... seems that for some LS650s there is a tighter clearance between the fuel c0ck and the frame, that prevents the removal of the gas tank unless the petc0ck is removed first (my Bike is like this), while others just require a backward tug on the tank with a left upward twist to clear the tank with fuel c0ck attached from the frame. Don't ask me why this is so, other than it might be due to slightly acceptable tolerance differences during frame manufacture??

Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by arseholes!

I 'd like to go up another 4-5" but I can't find any grade 8 bolts that long w/ the right size shank and head.
