I too would keep the American spec bars its a American bike. I have done on my 750f1 and its a pleasure to ride. Also kept the indicators American spec. :)

Looking good! 5 months is a decent turnaround, I geuss you don't have 2 small kids underfoot... Nice results there.
Regards the bars, ride with em, if they feel right, why swap, if not, worth experimenting with moving them in the mounts a bit, I think my 500 and 550 had a similar style of thing, but I used to happily do 500 miles in a day on a semi regular basis for a fair few years, only time I found the m awkward was when I did some work on the bike and set them too low - close to my knees, cranked back up they were fine.
JamesH:
I'm biased, because all of my bikes are US imports but i have to agree I'd keep the bars as-is. The riding position in my opinion is fine. If they were Ape Hangers, then I'd change them..

Great work Paul.
Love the existential message using the big blue bin... recycling, yup we get it!
Cheers,
