Well, if you're serious you could have the original seat reupholstered a couple of inches thicker (ie. less of a scoop that is standard) - you could also make it a bit wider (rather than chamfered) below your legs too?

Then fit a pair of 6inch Renthal Trials bars (like mine) which are about 2 inches higher and 3 inches wider than standard, with a sweep that gives more of a trailie/relaxed riding position and moves the weight off your wrists...

That might be enough, but with the raised suspension you would really have a retro Multistrada, non?
