Default Comfortable Handlebars - Suburban Machinery?

OK, if I wanted to replace my standard handlebars on my S2R with something other - what would you recommend?

Preferably I'd like something narrower with the "correct angles" as I seem to get wrist pain with the stock bars. The Suburban bar looks good but are they much lower as I don't want to simulate clip-ons?

Also I am using bar end mirrors and the standard bar is splitting on the throttle side which is starting to impact throttle free play due to the expansion, so something stronger than the standard bar would be good.

I'm pretty sure the SM bar are not really much lower than stock, and if they are, then maybe risers?

I think LSL have a number of difference bars with differing rise and taper, just don't where to get them here, so it might be trial and error from the states?

btw, I think these are 7/8" bars, you might have to look into the fat bar option..
