I would say the bike lean angle is similar to stock. Maybe a tad bit on the higher side but not by much.

This is for the people that change the air in their tires every 3,000 miles.

Same could be said for changing the stock chrome exhaust covers for black ones and different floorboards and pegs

Not the same. Changing because of taste is different than trying to fix a problem.

My trying to explain it will only suffice to waste my supply of web-ink

I'm not so sure about that. IMO, Its exactly the same. It's for someone that wants a jiffy to be in a different position than stock. It makes no difference to me one way or the other. I have no plans to change mine. Not sure why people try to justify why something is useless if their opinion is different.
With that said, it's all good. Outta here

I ordered the part way back when, what like February?, and installed it today. I just did the 10 degree forward deal. I like it. Works great. No issues. Price was right. Shipped quick. I just read how a bunch of guys ****ed dshellys brains out on the forum due to his QVC marketing technique. He was upfront and apologized, so no harm no foul in my book.
