It is not all that bad on the back. Keep in mind it is a soft tail, but it is very stiffly sprung. I have been thru several sets of bars on it, trying to find the most comfortable set. I have never ridden it with the ones that are on it when it was on the trailer. A fabricator buddy of mine just copied the ones that were on there but changed the leading edge of them to clear the headlight. A buddy had a V-Max for a while. Don't remember the exhaust it had, but the damn thing sounded like a small block. That is about as far into the cruiser spectrum as I would venture, if I were to own something of that nature. When I bought the GSXR there was one of these sitting next to it. I should have got it instead, probably would still have it. Still want one.....
