Bruce,
Good choice. I don't care for any bars in pullback configuration. I like wide
bars, in a super, flat track, or euro sport configuration. My Beemer's bars
are extremely narrow, but feel good. You are tall, such as myself, and find
the seat/peg/h-bar relationship on the loopframes very well suited to any of
those style bars. I run K&N superbars, black finish

Mark.

ps. I had to re-read your post.......I thought you let the cat out of the bag
on our secret of negotiating W.Va curves at 150 mph! :-)

 Mark,
I want to replace the police bars with the stock ones with risers. I
found that the police bars make it difficult to neogitate those 150
degree WVa hairpin curves at 65 mph. Just can't seem to get the right
leverage on them.
