Has anyone done a handlebar conversion on a GSXR1000K1 i.e. straight bars on?

I am considering this as my body is less sympathetic to the riding position and I want to make the bike more useable for me. If you have, where did you get the kit?

Thanks

I did one on a 750 K4, the kit came with everything needed, including the longer throttle cables
The ABM kit is awesome.

Even has spacers to place under the mirrors to lift the nose fairing enough so that you don't have to cut any bodywork

Totally different bike for me much easier to ride no neck pain or wrist pain. My straight bar conversion has transformed my gixxer 1000 k3 love it even more now 😁👍🏍

@Gsxblue I don't know your health status, but when I start feeling wrist & neck pain I think about increasing my core and neck muscle strength rather than changing the bike. If your core is strong enough you won't need to hold yourself up with your wrists - putting unwanted input into the bars. Same goes for holding your head up.
