Default Handle Bar Conversion?

Has any on done a handle bar conversion? I am building a street fighter with a 954 front end, and I am looking for options. Thanks for any input.

by street fighter, i suppose you mean a motorcross style flat bar. ive seen it done but no personal experiences. i have heli-bars installed on my bike and they are higher and a little flatter. kinda expensive but a nice balance between upright riding position and still low enough for charging corners. just a thought.

Do you have any picks of your more upright bars? How long does it take to chagne them out? If not too long...might be a nice switch with a corbin seat to go on long straight trips.

Come on NINE2NINE bust out the photos

It takes a few hours , but you also get new Galfer brake lines

Stock vs. Heli

So worth the $240 and BIG difference on long rides??? Was thinking of (sad to say) picking up a cruiser for long trips with my wife. Hopefully just a couple hour change out and throw on a corbin seat with Rear Rest. Really interested to hear.
