Question Replacement handlebar for Bandit 1200S

Anyone have a recommendation for a good (i.e., very close to stock) handlebar for a Bandit 1200S?

Mine had been dropped when I bought it and the bar end was bent. It is affecting the throttle return. The mechanic tells me the only way to really get it to work as it should is to replace the handlebars, but I don't want to pay Bikebandit or others $140 or so when I should be able to get a decent handlebar for less than half that.

I can see if I've still got mine. What year? You can also go with a Daytona bar. It's a bit flatter and more comfortable. Unfortunately, it also requires sawing off about 1" off the ends and drilling holes for the control tabs.

Mine is a 99. I'm not really equipped at the moment for serious mods, so something close to stock is necessary.
