Put a set of FZ6R bars on, puts your hands an inch forward and an inch or so down. I'll let you know how it feels. Should put a little more weight on the front end.

Lower bars do work better for front end feel.....but there is no feel on an stock FZ07. The stock tires provide no feedback at all ..and the front suspension is numb. Not to mention that the rubber mounted handlebars remove any "feel" that had any chance to reach the bars. The solution is to upgrade the fork internals and change over to a more sport oriented tire. With the AK20's and BT016 Pros....I have really good feel now. It tracks around corners like a slot car.

Sorry it took so long. They were easy to put on, only mod was to drill new holes for the locating pins on the switches. Motor vehicle Vehicle Motorcycle accessories Automotive lighting Auto part

Nice, looks like they sweep back more, like a Harley Sportster's bars, how do they feel?

I like these gold bars, don't know who makes them though.

They actually move the grips forward and down about an inch. They also give you room to rotate the brake lever down, without the resevior hitting the bar.

Nice, looks like you have them rolled forward Chicago style.
My main complaint with the stock bars is the angle (I wish the grips were straighter and not angled back so much), but I wouldn't mind them a little lower, narrower, and slightly more forward too.
Suggestions?
