depends on the bike…the “bent” bars you speak of I assume you mean “clubman” handlebars…both serve a similar purpose but in some cases clip-ons contact the tank before full steering travel and clubmans may not on the same bike. I will say on a lot of bikes having a continuous handlebar such as clubmans helps cut some of the vibration out of the bars which is what generally causes hand fatigue on longer rides. ---

Yes, I was talking about clubmans. If a clip on contacted the tank, couldnt you just loosen it up and rotate the bar out? Thx for the info ---
