High bars

[dandywarhol]

I'm getting a pain in the neck (as opposed to being a pain in the neck) from a bit of osteoarthritis from too many bangs on the head in a previous life.

I've got an ABM top yoke and wondering what a comfortable bar would be to use. I'm around 5 ft 8 in.
Do you need to fit the bar weights or does a tapered Renthal type of bar disipate the vibes?

Thanks

i'm about the same height as you i have a cool n comfy top yoke with Renthal ultra low bars with flat disc type bar ends same diameter as the grips. I made steel dogbone type brackets to remount the fairing 15mm higher and 15mm further forward. I had to route the throttle cables under the bars and space the switchgear so they miss the fairing on left full lock, on right lock i built out the lockstop by 2mm. I really need some mirrors with longer stalks as they're now even more full of elbows but the riding position is miles better, oh and a double bubble screen makes a big difference.

Any pics?

I can sort out some pics. You might have to pm me an email address because putting pics on here is still beyond me
