sorry if i have asked this but i cant remember (bad memory) and i might have been asked before
basically i want to go naked (yes been asked before)........ BUT!! not permanently, my backs not really playing up whilst im riding but its when i get off im in a fair bit of pain....... soooo i was wondering if there was a way to go naked relatively cost free, just to see if i like it and its more comfortable im guessing i can just pull off the fairings and put bars on? |

IIRC some of the cables aren't long enough to facilitate the raised bars, but you don't need to remove the fairings to put higher bars on

Go for a demo ride on some naked bikes at dealers? Seems it'd be a hell of a pain of a conversion to make if you're looking at going totally naked (fnaar!
