Clip-on handlebars. They're very low on the S version. A lot of people find them painful after about an hour of riding. Ok at 70mph as the wind pressure on your chest lifts weight off your hands, but for slower riding they aren't ideal. I swapped mine out for risers (like you have on your Naked version) so I can ride for longer than an hour. I can now do all day in comfort... apart from the seat, but that's another issue common to them all.
