Hi guys , what ar your thoughts on flat bars vs clip ons?

I was thinking of getting a set for GS but just wondered if there is any difference between the two.

Pros and cons of both? how it changes riding posistion etc?

Is it even worth cosidering?

cheers marco

This is very much personal opinion...I much prefer clip ons as I'm used to sports bikes so even my naked bike has them.

i have a flat bar, is really good but I didnt think about clearance with the mini front fairing on my z750, so I have to twist the bar switches etc but cant see this being an issue on the gs.
I prefer a flat bar, feel stable and more sporty.
