American sport bike has some nice high handlebars that mount in the stock location. What are superbike bars? That makes me think of a clip on that would mount below/ lower than stock.

Superbike bars would be similar to the CR high bar kit

Sounds like a flat-track bar.
I like the bars on Loretta but fine adjust of the angles(down and back) would be nice.

Not a whole lot of options for higher unless you cut the fairing some.
It's a pretty tight fit if you look close...

CR triples should work, but there's that darned key-switch mount...

EBR has(or had?) a billet triple set; needs clip-ons, brake/clutch lines, switchgear etc.

I ride laid out on the airbox on slab trips. very comfy.
I even fell asleep once at 75. The dinosaurs on I-76 woke me up...

That's a new one for me.

I had a set of handlebars made that bring them about 2" up and back. Much more comfortable for my 6'1" self. Knight Design 2" drop pegs help too. Photo shows first try. Levers were too high due to fluid res clearing riser bar. Second try I put all items 2" farther out on bars. This works great. A little more leverage. Very minimal fairing interference.
