It looks easy enough to rotate them, but does it cause problems with all the fitments that are attached and in particular cable lengths. I'm thinking of rotating them forwards an inch or two as I find myself bunched up against them

I did this on my demo ride, as I was struggling with reach on the standard set-up. but this was many weeks ago and only for an hour's riding but I had no issues with cable slack just the need to adjust the brake levers too. IIRC one the r.h. lever would only rotate so far because the master cylinder touched something else, but just enough for what I needed.

I just adjusted mine to my needs, in my opinion a simple operation that everybody must do. Anyway, there is not too much room to adjust, specially if you have a touring screen, you will find that you hit the screen with the levers if you try to push the handlebar, and you will find you hit the not the tank with the grips if you try to pull the handlebar

I hope my horrible english make some sense

as above you can only do it a small bit else it hits the m/c

cables no prob but the switchgear might be rotated round too far
