Meteor 350 handlebar upgrade.
Finally pulled the trigger and swapped the stock handlebars on my Meteor 350 for the Goan Classic ape handlebars.
After a few rides, I can honestly say this is how the bike was meant to feel. It finally feels like a proper cruiser. The riding position is spot on, and it gives off that old-school Harley-style vibe I was going for.
Comfort is surprisingly good, even on longer rides.
The upright riding posture feels very natural and relaxed.
On the highway, it almost feels like you're just gliding along.
I was expecting the bike to become harder to handle, but maneuverability is actually better than the stock handlebars. Low-speed riding feels more confident than I expected.
The only downside is that doing a full U-turn takes a little more effort, but it's nowhere near as bad as I imagined.
Took it out on the highway today and it was an absolute joy. Super relaxed, super comfortable.
I've added both before amd after images. What do you guys think?
