Howdoo ? Apologies if this hasd been done to death, but I can't find anything specific on the search option.

I'd like to change the bars on my X1 when I finaly get it home here in Mallorca.
I think the standard bars look a bit 70's Jap bike, so I'd like to fit something a bit nicer looking, even though the little time I've ridden the bike, the standard bars felt fine.
There seems to be two options, the Superbike bar, and the Conus.
Has any one fitted either? Is there a riser, or clamp for the X1 to be able to fit the Conus bars?
Also does anyone know what the pullback measurment is on the Superbike bar?
Cheers,
Mick.

If you search Google images you'll see that Busters give dimensions of rise which is useful for comparison...

Yep, not very helpful economically speaking, but no matter how much measuring and comparing you do, the proof of the pudding is in the riding... buy-and-try...
However, here is a 'level' shot of the Renthal Ultra Lows on my Skinny M2 showing the grips pretty much level with the top of the tank:
