Has anyone tried the LSL superbike low bars? I want something a bit lower than stock on my 2013 Ninja but not so low it hurts my wrists. I was wondering if there was any clearence issues with the bars, maybe hitting the fairing or tank?

How about the naked bike variant? Anyone run this type? I've been looking at the renthal streefighter's, but it'd be nice to hear any input on these..

I have Renthal low bars and they look about the same. Pretty much perfect, would not want to go lower

I have these on my '09. They are great.
I have a very small dent in my tank from them (with the oem bar ends on) otherwise no clearance issues.
I m using the oem bar ends but as the lsl bars are unthreaded you will have to work out how to attach them. I used the expanding rubber system from another pair of bar ends but have had to find a longer bolt and add washers etc to get it right.

So my new LSL Superbike handlebar and Progrip grips are on and they look sweet in combination with the same color mirrors and levers:

The new stance feels good and natural too and offers better front end feel.

It's also great for powering out of corners and sliding around in general :D

I kept the OEM bar ends and they were fitted by my mechanic with a motocross patent and there where no clearance issues whatsoever.

More impressions in a few days after testing them in various riding conditions!

So after quite a few kms and a 500 trip, my final impressions are excellent :)

The new stance is ideal for sport riding as it puts more weight on the front, allows easier movement on the saddle and offers more leverage and better handling of the bike in general.

After 300 highway kms I found the new stance to be more relaxed and comfortable for my body type. It is lower so my helmet generates less wind noise as it now is in the correct angle. Better elbow angle and easier to kiss the tank too. No extra fatigue on my back and wrists :cool:

In the city the extra width is noticeable only during manoeuvres which require the bike to come to a complete stop.

Highly recommended!
