i found an aftermarket "Euro SPORTS" bar that is about 2" lower, and 1" more forward than stock dlx bar. The pull back angle feels the same as stock bar. this is my new bar:

At first i wasn't sure i'd like it w/ me leaning more forward, but after a nice spirited ride through the hill country, i noticed how much more sure footed my bike is going through technical turns. All i can think of, is by me leaning more up front, that was enough to make the bike handle quicker, i suppose? anyhow, i gained more confidence with throwing my bike into/out of turns w/ this new bar bend. So i'll keep it on the bike for another yr.

Here's link to this new bar, with dimensions & a smokin' hot price for it

Jedd....Your bars look great. Thanks for the outstanding info! Can you please advise if the anti-vibration inserts and bar ends from the stock bars are a direct fit for the Euro Bars??

Thanks!
