I just replaced the handlebar on my 06 EC200. As I did buy the bike secondhand, I am not completely sure that the old bar is stock, but I think so.

I tried to measure the old one, but of course it is somewhat bent out of shape. I found it to be quite similar to the Renthal Twinwall 997, although not completely equal.
Since I was pleased with the bend of the old one, I bought a Twinwall 997. I have now ridden some hours with the 997, and didn't really notice a big difference, so I think they match pretty good.

If you are after something different, stay away from the 997
