I changed the stock bars with 8" buckhorns with 6.5" pullback. With low-profile seat they are just below the shoulder level and VERY comfortable for me (I am short 5'5"). Not only comfort but the handling of the bike has also improved significantly. I find myself scrapping pegs a lot more now that I did with stock bars ... :-)

Sig pic should give you an idea...
