Umm, actually in my post I said half an inch! If it was an inch the adjusters would be hitting the bottom of the bars.
My mechanic said half an inch is as far as he would ever consider or you risk the bike pinging you off when you least expect it. However, I am interested to note that you reckon 7mm would be extreme, so I might go for 1/4 in instead of 1/2.
(Or maybe stock).

As for moving the bars back, that's interesting as I was feeling that I wanted to move them forward so as to get more weight over the front wheel. Maybe I haven't adapted to Fazer style riding position compared to my FZR and ZX6.
