Just go to Bent Bike texas. They usually have an assortment of superbike bars.
Thats all those BMW GE bars are. Been around for a hundred years...

I had to go pull down the old ladies pants just to get right again... ;D

On the Dennis Kirk catalog website, the rise, pullback, and width of the bars is specified.  The bars labelled "superbike" are not the same as the BMW bars.  The superbike bars are wider and higher for better leverage while wrestling with a superbike.  The Beemer bars are lower, straighter, and narrower.

Nice looking KZ550!
