My bike needs a handlebar tweak too - the issue isn't as severe as yours, but on a long trip I find myself holding the ends of the grips which suggests that even with my relatively long reach, the bars are too far away. I think new risers should solve the problem rather than having to replace the bars themselves and deal with moving all the controls... but I haven't the foggiest [bleep]ing notion as to how to accomplish that, what size/type of riser would be appropriate, etc. Part of it is that I don't generally trust a motorcycle shop to just sell me what I need, rather than trying to "upsell" me when I don't really need it.
