I usually get on the bike and loosen the clamps slightly and move the
bars around till I find a comfy spot then tighten everything back up. Go
for a long ride to check it out and if I don't like it, I start all over
again.

As said, if you have the complete police setup, the bike is quite
comfortable to ride long distances. You can turn the bars a bit to make them
fit your size. I turn mine down to where they just miss hitting the tank,
which works best for my wrists.

Does anyone know what there are 2 kinds of handlebars? Is it because the
police bikes needed to clear the fairing, or was it so they could
control the bike with one had better? I have the police bars but they
feel kind of odd being bent inward so much. Do any of you prefer the
police bars? why?
