I'm sure there are some people that do like it, but I'm not really a fan. Maybe it will grow on me. I usually LOVE all their products.

i've done it not everyones cup of tea but it stoped me getting rid of the bike as i like it a lot.
As for looking awful most comments are about how good it looks.
Its a shame the bikes been in the dealers 8 weeks waiting for a fix still i might get it back this week.

Not a fan but hard to tell how it looks on the bike as a whole. From that particular angle it isn't something I'd do.

I did the Helibars, that was enough to unbend my wrists and stop the numbness. I'd be afraid that this conversion would take too much weight off the front, as other said making it a stunt bike. To each his own I guess.

I am using the Heli Bars on my S1000 rr and love them. It makes a really noticeable difference in comfort for me. (I am 61, so a little help on the bars goes a long way!)

These are about $300. And they keep the stock look.

Looks like a clean setup and we all have our own styles for different reasons.
