Chis, Love your cat. I have two Maine Coon Cats and they are a hoot. The reason I moved my lights back was to accomodate the bags but more importantly to make my directionals more visible. Looking at your pictures, your directionals had the same problem mine had---they were skootched in behind the bags and were not as visible as they were designed to be. Moving them back solved that problem. The bags also look more balanced. I use my bike as a sport-tourer, so it usually carries saddle bags, a tail bag, and a tank bag. My rides are usually 100 to 500mi one way. The 250 is fine for that. I would not, for one minute hesitate to ride my Ninja from Maine to California. With a 15T front sprocket, the bike could do the trip without breathing hard.
