ARRRRRRRGGG! I'm so confused, do I want clip ons or bars  Huh?
Well I had a set of clip ons on my 695 and I HATED them... I am 6 foot and with the rear sets that were on the bike it was VERY uncomfortable for me but my wife is only 5"5 and she loved them and they seem to fit her well. I swapped out the clip ons for a set of motorcross bars and now I love the way it feels but the wife still prefers the clip ons. I also ride an RC51 with clip ons and I love it. Do you know anybody with your same style bike that you ride with clip ons you could try out to see if you like the riding stance with them on??? Just my 2 cents Wink

Recently added clip ons to my M800Sie, above the triple.  Ended up at exactly the same height and width as the stock bars, but now at the perfect angle for my wrists.  But definitely more effort and expense than the Rizoma's, which will get you to the same result.

riser ones. they look (but not sure yet) like they are a bit higher than my cycle cats, but they can go as  low as my tomasellis...which means i can get them low for a bit more aggressive on the weekend rides, and raise them for my trip back home, or for city riding/ or lower for track etc.
