Added a couple of items, recently, to the growing list of RS mods. First up is the OEM Sport seat. At first glance it seemed like it would be too high, giving that riding on, not in the bike feel. After covering aprox, 500 miles I've found that's not the case at all. My overall position height on the bike is only slightly different and the extra inseam room is much appreciated. On the highway there is a little more cushion. Even though the foam is on the firm side, there's just more of it. In the twisties it's less effort to weight the pegs for aggressive cornering since my knees are at less of an angle. And as I've mentioned in the classified post, this is a genuine Mr.Vvrroomm take off item, so it makes your bike 15% quicker
The second thing I added/fixed, which has been bugging me the whole time I've owned the bike, is the small diameter grips! I've seen quite a few solutions in this group and finally decided to go with Grab On grips. They're slightly thinner than regular Grab On's and are made to install over the originals. Yesterday I covered 220 miles with them and the difference in hand fatigue, especially by the end of the ride was very noticeable.
