The thing I noticed while riding was more of an elbows out (just a very small amount mind you) on the bike with the tubular bars but same reach. If you look at the configurator and click on/off on the tubular bars option you can see they both have similar feel just tubular bar ends a bit up and forward a tad which is my experience riding (done before looking at the configurator). Hope this makes sense. Link below:

Thanks. In the past I found it difficult to see the reach and height difference with the configurator view.
It's too bad BMW does not give measurements of both bars.
It would be nice if they also compared to the standard R bars and the lower R Sport bars.
I don't think the R Sport bars are still available as a option on the 2023 but a person can order them from the parts department.
