Hi all

I bought my z900 Cafe a few weeks ago. I love it but at 6’4” I’m finding problems with my wrists and shoulders on longer rides.
I’m seriously thinking of swapping out or modifying the handlebars to make life more comfortable.
Looking forward to contributing to the group of I can.
Cheers all

Welcome.

I wondered about that with the Cafe.
I am your height and have no problems with my standard ZRS,  hours on end.

OK, maybe a bit of numbum.......

  You'll be able to research in here what some other members have done to make their cafe's more comfy. Hope you get it sorted out.

Don't worry Dave, a couple more years and you will have the extra padding from a set of depends

    I flipped around my stock risers 180 degrees that are aprox. 5mm forward, getting the them back 10mm from stock.  Then I added 20mm risers.  It's nothing radical but you'll have no stress on cables or wiring not being long enough.  It's a simple and cheap fix.   If you do them both at the same time it's pretty noticable.  BTW I'm 5'8" and it did the trick.    Good luck

Thanks all for both the welcomes and the advice.
Now I’ve finished remodelling the kitchen and dividing the garage in to two unequal halves to make an office (both my wife and I are now permanently working from home, I hope to find time to move the ‘bars around on the Cafe.
I’ve also installed a “tail tidy” which I think looks crappy so I’ll put the OEM parts back.
