That looks so much better than a 2" lift. The extra inch straightens out the lines.

Default New daylight pictures

I took few more and better pictures today. I have mixed feelings. One moment i like it, second seems to me too much. Let me know what do you think.

May be to much with the stock seat. Hard to tell. If you want some quick clearance between turn sigs and tank,

loosen up bars and roll them counterclockwise when looking at it from the exhaust/intake side.... the bar is not continuous so you can roll each side separate from the other.... then just rotate hand controls slightly back down and you should gain some clearance.

I did this on mine after the 2" and I now have a good bit of clearance. It gives me a little more of a stretch in the arms, which feels better.

Here is a pic
