Handle Bars

Anyone have any opinions on great looking cafe racer style handlebars for cb750k4. im going stock on my bike rebuild except for the handlebars..

jwalters:
I went with the clubman bars.  I really like the look.  http://omarsdtr.com/cafe5.html  That site has them, but I bet about 5 minutes worth of google searching will turn up a pair for ~$20 or so.  Cheap!
I drilled holes in the bars and ran the control wiring through the bars.  That was a pain in the butt!  If you can tell from the pictures, the bars make almost a 90 degree bend, that made it difficult to run. It was worth the 4 hours it took because it looks great now!
I also had to jb weld some larger pegs onto the handle bar stoppers so the new bars didnt' hit the tank when I tried to turn too sharp.  With these bars down low, there is less of a turning angle, but so what, it's a racer!

Here is the only picture I have of the current state of my cafe racer project CB 750K2.  It's awaiting painting!  I am excited!
Hope this helps.
