I made a video about the 5 things that I hate about my VFR800, in this video I explain how I addressed the issues and made by bike really loveable.

Here are links to some of the things in the video:
Streetfighter style bar risers: https://ebay.us/8N3uEA
Allen Key Set: https://ebay.us/mOyQkE

The biggest improvement is by far and away the streetfighter style bars. This transforms the bike for me. It feels like a completely new bike and mostly solves 4 of the main issues.

The riding position is much more comfortable, taking weight off your hands, stopping your back from aching. This makes the bike so much better for longer distance riding, Although sitting more upright, the leg position is still fine. It does put a little more weight on a different part of your buttocks than the other bars, but this isn't a major issue, and might not be an issue for others.

Using the standard screen with the upright bars makes the issue with wind noise from the screen far less of a problem. I think that the wind hits you more at chest level, and this is far more comfortable than any of the other set ups I have tried. This is an area that seems to get more complaints about the VFR than any other, so this is a really big improvement.

The wider bars make the bike feel a lot lighter. It is a lot easier to move about when putting it into the garage, or into a parking space.. When riding the bike it feels more nimble and agile, and the fact that you are more upright makes it far easier to look back and use the mirrors. This gives you a lot more confidence for all manoeuvres, whether entering roundabouts, or overtaking.

The fourth thing that is vastly improved numbness in my hands. It is probably a mixture of less weight on your hands, the bars transmitting less vibration.
