I think the ones on the injured SC are the comfort ones.  The ones that I remember on BarneePhife's were the low agressive clip ons that are stock

I thought Jim had the taller "comfort" bars too?? Not sure. That could be the answer though. Mine are for sure the stocker low bars, couldn't use them, too low for the bionic neck to handle. Tommy (or who ever he got the bike from) may have installed the taller bars on Ryan's bike. Need to campare his damaged bars with a set of "comfort" bars. I can tell by looking.

BINGO!! Being the dumbass that I am I didn't think to look at an online picture of the "comfort" bars. :P Just clicked on the AMS website and went to Sport Classic parts and shazaam... there are the taller bars! Click on the picture Ryan and tell me if those don't look just like your damaged ones. They are $125 which in the grand world of Ducati parts isn't that expensive. Surprised they aren't $250!! You are still welcome to my low, stock bars but trust me, the taller ones are a lot more comfy. Go sit on a stocker at D/AMS and see what you think. [thumbsup]

I think AMS must have intalled the comfort ones on my old skunk, especially if they were taller than other ppl's "stock" ones.  I never knew they were comfort risers, but they weren't uncomfortable.

Tommy, trust me, you would know if you had the "uncomfortable" ones. If you didn't notice anything, then you for sure had the taller ones... lucky for you! [thumbsup] My BiB is in my storage bldg. so I couldn't just walk out in the garage and see what Ryan was talking about. It now all makes sense.

Just stopped by the Ducati shop up here in Seattle for fun. Talked with the sales guy there. Turns out, towards the end of the 06 model year they started putting the comfort set on the bikes as a sales incentive to move them more easily. So he said that chances were I had the comfort set. When he pointed at the bike he had on the sales floor and said, "Like those." I knew he was right.

oh well, I wanna TRY the stock set and see what I think. Who knows. Maybe they'll be fun.

That explains it Ryan. Hey, if the set I gave you pretzels you up too much the taller bars are $125 or so. Use mine until you want to spring for the taller set or just hang onto mine if you like them.  [moto]
