Can anyone tell me what Buell handle bars might be a bit taller and have a little more pull back than the OEM ones on an '00 M2? I'm okay with the stockers but they're just a bit too low and I have to reach a little too far so I'd like to find some that fit me better.

Here is a chart so you can compare the stock to a few others: http://www.sideroadcycles.com/AmericanMotorcycles/ Handlebars/Stock_Bars.html

And a link to a chart for Bikemaster 7/8" bars: http://www.svrider.com/forum/attachment.php?attach mentid=18650&d=1425931446

I believe several people have swapped to Blast bars because they are cheap and almost the same as the S3 or S3T bars but someone with more knowledge will probably chime in.

American Sport Bike has 1" risers but that probably won't help your reach much. Definitely less work than swapping the bars/controls.

The 1" risers and a slight tilting of the bar should give you more reach.

Blast bars worked great for me
