Having ridden sports/race bikes for 25 years, in the 3 years that I've owned the Buell, I've still not got comfortable with the riding position.

It's just too upright and with no weight on my arms over the front I don't like not being able to feel front end grip.

So I was thinking about flatter bars to push a little of my weight on to my arms, but I wondered if anyone else felt the same and whether anyone had considered or even fitted clip ons?

you should have got an XB9R firebolt. They come with them already fitted

Or find you some xb crossroads clip on style handle bars ,they sit in between the upright lighting and bent over firebolt handle bars.
