  1. OK, the risers give you more options to sit upright, easily adjusts up or down.  The Cal-Sci windscreen is better than stock in clean air on the highway, less buffeting around your helmet, shoulders still get some wind, however in traffic the turbulence is still present no matter the height of the screen.  Cars are bad, trucks worse. Better than stock but I would like to see what Madstad and National Cycle come up with.

  2. Needed risers for more comfort and fortunately Heli Bars made some for the 900 GT that fit perfectly on my 2021 9GT(Thanks Kenny A).  No need to extend cables, 1-1/8 inches taller, 1-1/8 inches rearward.  Big difference!

    I also put on a Cal-Sci windscreen- large.  The screen was made for the 900 GT but it fits my 9 GT. At least 4 inches taller than stock and it has a vent hole to lesson turbulence.  Test ride tomorrow.  Will report.

  3. I could not get used to the aggressive slope forward of the 9 gt seat.  I had Motorcycle Upholstery in California modify it for me.  Not perfect, but a definite improvement.  The issue is the seat pan, not the seat padding, which is minimal.  Motorcycle Upholstery placed more foam and Gel inside the seat and it is definitely more comfortable. However, I still find pushing myself back into the seat which tries to make you slide into the tank. As you see in the photos, I added padding to lift the seat higher as I have a 36 inch inseam.

    Again, not perfect, but until the aftermarket catches up,  this is a great improvement over stock.
