Judging by the pic of your bike in your sig link, you may need a shorter stem if you're out on the horns a lot but maybe you could try flipping it to lose some of that rise?
Hmm, interesting. I figured I wanted my bars higher because when I'm riding I am finding myself holding the flats of my bars with the tips of my fingers so I can sit up a little more. But I am more comfortable out on the horns than on the flats. I'll just have to play around with things and see how it goes. Thanks!
