i bought pro taper contour cr high bend's, they are over sized so i had to get a 3/4" universal adapter so that raised them 3/4" or so, they are nice and comfy and u can always buy a +1 or +2 stem

thanks... i also have another question with the addition of aftermarket handlebars is it always going to be neccessary to move the location of the ignition or are there some bars out there made so you do not have to relocate your ignition?

Can't go wrong with Flexx bars. They might be a little expensive, but they are well worth it.

I bought the flexx bars and wont buy any other bars ever. I also have a trailtech clamp which is really nice and it has a built in relocation for your key and oil temp light etc
