Anyone have any recommendations for taller handlebars for an S1 Lightning?? Are there any websites out there that give handlebar dimensions??? The stock bars seem alittle low. Long rides are alittle rough on the wrist, (especially with a passenger.) Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Just put some S3T bars on it. Everything will work. Cables are long enough.

It's here:

I know Buell isn't "imported" but they put the info here, I guess because of the 7/8" thing.

Thanks!
I've heard Blast bars were an option as well???? Is this true???
Also, I've checked the Flanders site before, but there's no info for the 98's.

The S3T and Blast bars are the same part # which is N002.M. They go for around 43 bucks.

I just put Blast bars on my M2, I got them for about $35 from eBay. (There was a Blast handlebar the other day for like $9.)

They are higher, and slightly narrower. It's an improvement, for highway cruising. Really not quite high enough for me.

The cable are "long enough" but because I got the tach on my M2 the clutch cable wants to go right through the speedo now.
I just bought a longer +3 Barnett cable, to see if that helps, but haven't installed it yet.
