I had alook at the pics of your 'storm with the mx renthals - the whole thing looks really really good.
Couple of questions, because if I do this mod I think I'll go "high" like you - what about brake/clutch hoses and also throttle cables?
When they have the higher bars they are a vbit on par with the Tuono and they seem to be great fun!

I had to get longer brake and clutch lines made up - needed about an extra 2-3". The throttle cables and electrics reach but tbh are not ideal, I can't secure the loom as it almost goes tight on full lock. Once I can get onto it I'll add a bit into the loom to tidy it up a bit.
Nice simple conversion but does involve a big chop on the fairing and screen as well as drilling the yoke.
Funny you should mention the Tuono as that was what inspired me a bit (as well as keeping the riding position from my last bike - CCM s'moto). I just couldn't afford or justify the money for one. I took the storm as a swap for the CCM but it turned out to be a bit of a lemon which is now starting to come together nicely.
