Exactly, its in how tall you are and how you ride. If you go to rocky mtn you can look up the specs for most bars.

I ride rather aggressively and Im about 6'1" and use protaper atv high bars. They could be another inch higher but that would mean I need a longer steering stem as they are among the highest bars out there already.

also a 6'1" rider using pro taper bars on 400ex. I honestly didn't know the difference until I hopped on the '03 machine with stock bars.

the way i herd it, atv high is a similar height to the stock bars. here is a siet that will show you what the different numbers mean: http://www.protaper.com/products/handlebars/se

I'm 6 foot and i run pro-taper se atv mid bends, i love it. Had MSR atv high bends on an old 400ex and was really comfy for stand up riding but i thought it made cornering difficult with how i had to bend my wrists, and i've been trying to get faster in the corners and these helped alot, also are still comfy for me when standing

^Do you have a pic of your setup? I just purchased a 04 400ex and I've been on a modding spree. Just buying up parts, but I have not installed anything yet.
