    Hey Zeds,

    Has anyone installed these on a Z900 with the digital TFT display? (2020 models and up)

    Might pull the trigger on these:

    After some more research, there is no difference between the way the 2017 and 2022 models mount their meter displays, so it should be good.

    Just out of curiosity, why would you want to lower the handlebars and turn this into a semi-crotch rocket? The Z900 is more upright than a Ninja for a reason. 

    Is it just for looks?  What about comfort?  Hey it's your Z900 though, right?  Make it yours - customize away, I can't fault anyone for that!

    I love how mechanically smooth the Z900 is (the engine, the shifting, etc) as well as it's torquey nature, and I picked it over the daytona 675 after a long internal debate on which style I prefer. I then had the privilege of riding a new R6 all last week and it reminded me how I sorta dig a more of an aggressive stance and I love the look of clips ons.

    When I got off the the R6 and back on the 900, I realized I didn't really dig how high the stock bars are, and could use a bit more of a forward stance in between naked and supersport.

    Bravo! Those are pretty sexy, I've only ever seen the ones that go around fork tubes, and in the Z's case would have to go underneath the triple tree, which never looks right
