Lee you have a keen eye!
I'm short 5-6". I bought a set of Heli bars for half the price of new on eBay. No cheap Chinese risers for me. I am going to ride the bike for a while without the risers but am positive they will be on soon.
I don't plan on the low seat as I hear the padding is not sufficient. I will stick to the standard, that could change to aftermarket. When I sat on the BMW low seat it felt like I was stuck in one spot, which is no good for long rides. No flat footing with the standard but better than the last few bikes I've had.
Reasons the RS is for me
-Seat height (manageable)
-Light clutch pull (I didn't know it could be so good) and no clutch in upper gears
-Torque, torque, torque !!!
-Electronics and refinement
-I can add Helibars easily
-My riding is not as sport oriented as before
-I have the cash, I asked dad for a loan
