I also have a set of Clubman bars.
I like them.
Have had a few bars over the years from 3" raise to 1 1/2" to these Clubmans.
I find you get used to whatever you have, although I rode a buddies 650 SR and did not like the high close together stock bars.

The clubman bars look pretty cool. Do the clubman bars require to bend over the tank like newer sports bikes?

The clubmans will require you to bend over more than the superbikes. It depends on what style you are going for. I think superbikes would probably fit the bill for ya'. They are a bit higher than the drag bars you have now. Clubmans are usually used on cafes.

Here's a picture of me with the Clubman bars on.
I don't have to lean over, but can if I want to, but I have long arms.
