It handle just like stock but u turns are a little different,hands off handlebars and it tracks straight as stock!
On topic first: Yup, I like the sissy bar. The dissimilar angles between the front and back doesn't even bother me. But then I liked a tall sissy bar on my bicycle back in the 60s!
About your front end... Yours is a frame cut and not an aftermarket tree kit?

I asked my daughter what she thot about the top few inches bend idea, she said" Would look like yer tryin too hard, leave it alone". I think I agree. The rear shot looks juuust fine. The bike looks good any way I look at it.
The first shot from the right front (on my puter) kinda looks like the sissy bar is made of twisted steel. The last shot allows me to see it's steel tube. I wouldn't bend that..

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, in one pretty and well preserved piece, but to skid in broadside, used-up, worn out, and defiantly shouting 'Geronimo!!!'

I really like the sissy bar and the chopped look, but I'd like to know some info on the white paint you used. I'm thinking of painting mine white with black graphics, and I don't know much about choosing paint, pearl, flat, metallic, clear coats etc. can you help me out, I love the white that is on your bike, it looks bright.
thanks, fingers.

This company sells exact color match paints and clear coats. They perfectly matched my 2000 Green Savage for my fender job, and I can attest to the quality. It is excellent. Shipping is fast too.
The only problem is that I can't find a simple color chart to pick colors. It's kinda like if you know a bike with a white paint that you like, then you can look it up that way.

Now that would be a new idea. Don't think I've seen a 1 to 2 pipe on a Savage yet. Stereo Thump!

Yeah, that cat-eye tail light under the fender is pretty sharp looking, but I wonder if it can be seen from the side as a running light?
