Has anyone switched out the stock handlebars for a Brutale? I'm looking for a more agressive look even if that means sacrificing some comfort. Any recommendations? Pictures?
Lower and straighter. I held one next to the stock bars when I was looking at doing this, and it don't look much in photos, but its pretty drastic change.
Hey NV MY MV check out my Gallery i have the Monster S4R bars fitted, definitely more aggresive puts more weight on front wheel and IMO looks way better than the originals and i have the rizoma bar end mirrors, freakin awesome at the trap!!

Sorry for the late reply....The holiday weekend got the best of me having to do my "honey-do" list and dealing with my two young girls. Thanks for everyone's input. I'll definitely will check out Sydney 910R's gallery for some ideas. We'll see where this goes...
Those are some nice photos, Sydney 910R!! That look with the S4R bars are exactly what I'm looking for. I definitely will really consider going that route. Thanks again for the info!
If you want aggressive bars go with bars from a Ducati streetfighter.
There's a set of streetfighter bars for sale in the classified section on this forum (not mine).
The SF bars are even more aggressive than the monster bars, I swapped out the bars on my sf for monster bars to get a little more relaxed.
If I were doing a lot of trackdays this the bar I'd get.
Unfortunately the barends that we make for the MV will not fit the stock Streetfighter bars. The ID on those bars is much smaller. We have universal barends that will fit those. The Rizoma conicals and most Ducati stock bars use the size A.
I've got Rizoma bars on mine and they don't foul the tank or the intakes, the clearances between the switchblocks and the intakes is tight but doesn't touch. I have also ridden a brutale with SF bars which were lower again than the Rizomas but they were dearer and they did foul the intakes.
I didn't like the stock bars at all, they were too high for my liking, I've found the Rizomas excellent and haven't found them to be uncomfortable at all.
