Hello all! So my handlebars are ever so slightly bent and need replacing. I'd like to stick with the ones I have, but I don't know exactly what style they are. Euro, superbike, daytona etc etc. To me they look like superbike bars, but from what I've read, superbike bars won't fit my model year due to the center width of the bars being 4". Any input would be very helpful. Can also provide more pics if need be.

If the bend is only sight you may be able to bend them back. I did this with an extra set that I bought by placing one end of the bars between two 2x4 boards, parking my truck on top of the boards, and then bending the bars back into shape. A bit crude I admit, but I was able to bend the bars so they were perfectly aligned. Ed

I thought about trying to bend them back.. but bikemaster bars only being 20 bucks or so I don't mind just replacing them. Plus I kind of like the idea of switching from chrome to black.

I'd guess those are superbike bars.
Here's a pic of my 81 KZ650-CSR w Emgo Euro bars from Z1Enterprises.com >> they have a bit more rise & pullback than superbike bars.
