newbonneville.com has a couple different bars that will work on the speedy, but basically any 1 inch bars will work for you. The only thing to keep in mind is that you might have to install new cables if the new bars are much higher than stock. The bars I'm using were bought off of ebay.

I put a pair of custom harley 6" risers on my 06 Speedy and it feels like a new bike, no leaning forward, very comfy. All you have to do is reroute the throttle cables to the right side of the fork.

I have the "m" bars on my America and a set of Harley (sorry) Deuce risers. The risers pull back and make a really comfortable riding position. I did have to drill out the mounting hole sfor the risers, but not a big deal.
I wish I knew how to put up pics :evil:

I put Superbars on my America with the same risers because the upright position aggravated my blown disk. I would have to lean forward when approaching a bump due to the short suspension travel or my back would be sore for a week. Vastly improved for me, but I know others like the upright position. With the shorter bars, I needed bar-end mirrors.
