Buy a set of drag bars.
I can't imagine anyone wanting bars lower than the already horribly low stock bars.

One thing for sure, regardless what anyone else thinks, you gotta do what fits and makes you happy.

I like them low, I have the WO 518's and they fit me nicely. I had the +2 sweepers before these, but they were giving me serious discomfort between the shoulder blades.

The style of bars will just depend on what you like and what will bolt up. There are a lot of options out there.

Had Heitage bars on my 2000 RG & was pleased with them. My 09 RG has Burly Bars on it and they work pretty good too.
