Has anyone used the Heli Bars on their bike? I rode a 1000RR about two years ago around the block that had them and they really seemed to make a difference. Just wondering how much of a difference on long rides.

It really depends on what type of riding/riding position you are looking for. The heli bars will make it fit more like a VFR. Slightly more upright, but your legs will still be tucked.

Of course, I have them available. :)

I put Heli-bars on mine last year. To look at it you really can't tell, but it it alot more comfortable riding.

I put Heli bars on my bike as soon as I bought it. They make a big difference in confort for the longer rides.
