Correct answer
Yes
Yes. Handlebar height and position can alter the rider’s posture and the area and shape presented to the airflow. They can therefore affect aerodynamic drag, along with fairing, clothing and other elements. This is not conditional on exceeding 125 cm³, nor does it mean raising the handlebars always increases drag in every design. Observe the vehicle’s safety and approval requirements.
