I found one guy who bought the remaining stock from Swatt. Im going to buy 2 1/2" bar risors with bars for $160 shipped.

If anyone else is interested I can give you his contact info.

From what I understand, both the Helibars and Convertibars are more adjustable than the Swatt's, which aren't height adjustable at all - they're just new clip-ons with different measurements than stock.

I just sent payment for a pair of 2.5" Swatt's one of the last remaining pairs.

If anyone wants to buy a set pm me and I will give you his contact info.

My Heli bars make quite a big difference although they are not the cure all. I still get a little sore but not near as bad. Also, it is easier on my wife since it makes me easier to hold on to.

I'd do it it again as well. The Swatt clip-ons have helped the comfort of my '08, and while it's no Interceptor or FJ in terms of comfort, it makes it a much easier bike to live with. Now I just need a gel seat...
