Default upgraded handle bars for the Lakota Sport

Wanting to ditch these weak stock bars, but dont know what bend or what kind. I tall 6 ft. 2 inches and with the stock bars seem like Iam leaning forward which after riding my back is sore from leaning, would I need to get longer cables for brakes, throttle? Hope not dont want to get any clamp kits either just a good inexpensive bar that will mount right up. I have been looking at MSR Dominator bars and FLY bars but again what type bend, and recommend good grips also, thanks for the help.

i wouldnt cheap out on bars they will just bend 5 times as fast and you will just have to replace them a few times.....go with some good pro taper, renthal or any other 1 1/8th bars, big bar clamps and get the cr high bend(atv bend) and dont angle them back like a dirt bike make them like strait up.....as far as grips the renthal kevlars kcik a$$ but any dual compund grips are real good......shop on rockymountain.com, they have the cheapest prices around.....i have some renthal fat bars, bar pad and grips for sale if your interested, the bars are anodized blue with no bends and only marks from being mounted, the grips look like new and so does the bar pad, the only thing you will need to get is big bar adaptors.....

Just ordered the Pro-Taper SE handle bars, with the Pro-Taper dual compound grips. Did I need bar clamps for these bars? I hope not just wanted to get some that mount right up to the Lakota Sport.
The size I got was ATV high bend good choice? Rocky Mountain ATV is where I ordered, also got the Razr 20-11-10 to replace the stock tires. What you guys think, good choices? Blazin
