I picked up my bike (2000 ZX12R turbo) yesterday and went for a 300 mile ride. The first 150 wasn't too bad on this 60 + year old body but the second 150 I was starting to hurt a little. The prior owner told me about a friend of his that had an aftermarket top yoke and adjustable handlebars. He thought the name of the company was 3 letters but couldn't remember. Anyone know what company or have any experience with these bars. Heli risers won't be enough as he has them on already.
Hi
Fast it is - comfortable over distance it is not! - when you want to start using it to cover mileage rather than win on a racetrack the riding position needs altering - as a fellow sufferer I've found there is a solution - try: http://www.streetfighterstore.com/comfort_kit_+_handlebars/283
They do the complete conversion kit to help save your back/neck/wrists etc
Good Luck

Maybe too late but many offer these so called superbike kits.
If two letters it could be LSL or ABM. Also Spiegler is a good alternative.
Personally I’m looking for a pair of helibars but they are rather expensive.
Hi
I am considering putting helibars on my ZX1200 as I am finding it uncomfortable to ride long distance. The problem is in the muscles in the back of my neck becoming tired from me holding my head up whilst riding. I figure a more upright riding position will mean less neck bending.
I am 6ft 1in high.
Anyone used these bars, and do they make a significant change to the riding position?
Thanks
