Default Dirt bike bars?

Just wondering what kind of adapters people are using to run dirt bike bars. Also what differences have riders noticed in switching from clipons to db bars.

I have a LSL Spiegler kit($370). Comes with everyting you need for a swap. I love mine! But switching to GSXR forks and turning my bike into a budget racer(clip-ons). So I will be selling mine this winter. Will not fit on the new beefier forks.

Did you happen to ride the bike before the bar conversion and if so did you notice any changes in how the bike rode. I love the way my f3 feels but I have serious wrist problems (the infamous 3 wheeler crash, at least it was just my wrist) I have seriously been considering a supermoto but if I could make my bike easier on me but still be able to ride it the same pace that would be sweet. I love the power characteristics of a 600 il4 and feel like a single 400 0r even 600 would leave me wishing I had kept the trusty f3.

This is humongus change! You sit more upright and not too much weight on your back and wrists. I have broke my back twice and cannot be leaned over for very long. I feel more stable and balance in turns dragging a knee. I really do like having moto bars.
