Default More comfortable handle bars

Are there any after market handle bars that can be adjustd, so that they sit in a straighter line??

The stock handle bars sit kinda like this: / \ and I want some that are more like this: -- --

When i adjust them to sit straighter, then the end of the bar hits this upper cowl.


Heres a picture of what im trying to do:

On superbikes last week they had a whole part on this stunt cage company... anyways the guy who owned it started in motocross and had motocross bars mounted on his stunt bike. Not sure how he did it, but might be worth checking into.

Yeah.....that's what the stunters do.....they put on dirtbike handlebars

How they do it....dunno

Another option is get the risers for our bike......there's a company that makes them

Here's the stunt bike bars:

Not sure, but I think cyclecat makes some, although not sure if for your
year of bike etc. I think you buy them through Oncycles.com but not sure on
that either.
