Quick comparison

Stock steel on the left, next to the aluminum upgrade. The Carmichael Bend practically mimics the stock configuration, I don’t think I’ll notice a big difference.

Like the chain guards, some upgrades go unnoticed until a specific situation arises. I mentioned why the chain and sprocket guards were upgraded.

The handlebar upgrade rectifies a bend, might shave a little weight off, less likely to bend, and softer so absorb some vibration. I was looking at bars with more dampening but they weren’t exact fits. Maybe next time…

Loading the car for work, missing a couple motorcycle commutes (during peak season no less!!!) so Deedles can rack up some more driving hours working towards his license.
