Are these handlebars standard?

    Just bought this bike and am going up to Salt Lake City to pick it up on Saturday and ride back to Phoenix. Suddenly struck me that the bars appear to have a greater amount of rise than standard (though I'm certainly no expert).

    Would love to know so that I can consider my bar options on my long way home.

    Yes.

    They look standard to me. *EDIT - except for the bar ends..*
    The right bar should have a horizontal cut out on the front section of the riser part.
    Why worry about "options".
    Honda actually do know what they are doing re : ergonomics, after all, this is the 6th Generation of this bike...

    I agree that the standard ergos are great -- at least from the experience I have had sitting on a new one. Glad to know that these are probably standard.

    The bar ends are a Throttlemeister cruise control. Never had cruise control on bikes before so I'm going to interested to see how it works out. Have a 650 mile trip to make to bring the bike home tomorrow so I'll have plenty of opportunity to experiment.
