I have the renthal streetfighter bars. They have a cross brace which some don't care for. They are an easy replacement (same diameter as stock), and they are close to the same bend as the stock bars. You will need to drill holes for the anti-rotation tab on the switch gear, but no big deal. As far as benefits, I had hoped they would cut down on vibration felt through the bars, but I honestly hadn't noticed any difference. I think the anodized gold looks great though. I also installed matching bar ends. If you wanted to go to a "fat bar" style, there would have to modifications made to your risers that I didn't want to mess with.

Although they might be tough to get in the UK, check out these Suburban Machinery bars:

i got the pro-taper henry reed bend and i love them...they make wheelies and stoppies much more stable...they were easy to fit however i accidentally pulled the engine cut off switch wires loose and they needed to be reconnected...also you can just drill out the knobs in the housing rather than drill a hole in your bars...make a couple loops of electrical tape around the spot where the housing sits and it won't move...also the stock bar ends didn't fit...the new id is a ****t hair smaller..

I'm with Capt Rat -- I've gone from the stock bar (too high) to clip-ons (little too low) to Suburban Machinery bars (Just Right!).

Renthals seem to be the de facto standard for Brit Streetfighters.
