Yeah the MX bars are deff angled diff, and also placed much higher than on Sportbikes. But for what it is worth, I have ridden ZX7's alot, and the right hand feel is still more natural for me... however with the new injury I have on my right wrist I can't ride a bike with clipons anymore, so I know what you mean about the crazy wrist thing.

What you might want to do, If you care to... is do what the racers do. Get a set of adjustable clipons and find your comfort zone. Sometimes something like that turns out to be the best mod ever done... I rode a 2stroke RZ350 race bike a long time ago, and the guy had his clipons angled in such a way the when hanging way off the wrists were straight... it was a bitch hanging on in the straights, but he loved it that way

I can vouch for the Pazzo Levers, forexample. They are pricey, and most sneeze at the thought of spending $150 - $200 on levers... but for me it makes a world of difference to be able to adjust them to my comfort. Much more important & usable than $1000 on a exh for a 5hp gain. After all it's the freaking controls, which is why I also went through 3 diff bars on my bike.
