Should I go for a straight handlebar, or with a larger angle?

Its even harder to know what shape I want when I dont even now the shape of the Yamaha original handlebar! Is there any info about this somewhere?

It comes down to personal preference and liking the particular bend. I would never buy a set of bars without feeling them first. One thing to consider is that there is enough room to fit all the controls ie grip, master cylinder, switch block.
