Thanks kenbob, I've actually already bought some black renthal 755 bars which are currently at an engineering place being tapped to accept the heavy R&G bar ends. I prefer the raised position of the standard bars just want them longer! I currently have two fzs1000's one with 755's and Chinese levers and one completely stock and the stock one just doesn't feel right compared to the modded one but as I bought the stock one for its near pristine condition and colour scheme I don't want to put anything cheap on it so red Reso levers and black bars it is.
B1k3rdude thanks for that link, an interesting read. I've already ordered the Reso levers so hopefully it will work out ok. I have noticed on my fazer with the Chinese levers that I can't adjust the lever to close to the bars and retain proper clutch movement which most obviously manifests itself in difficultly engaging neutral but as for control and feel I think the aftermarket levers are better as long as you're careful with their set up.
