Creating a plug'n'play with different handlebars is not really possible/practical. You will need bars, risers, switches, levers, master cylinder, wiring, cables and lines.
However, whenever you want to switch out (from drags to apes or back again), you will have to bleed the front brake, remove dash and raise gas tank for wiring, drain transmission fluid and remove transmission cover (to swap clutch cable) and probably other stuff I've forgotten.

very true its not really practical. BUT if you really want to go through all the mess that Wallaby said just to switch your bars then have at it boss. Me? i would just pick one.
I have a set of 18" br custom bars 1 1/2 diameter. I know you like fat bars but the taller they are they begin to look like wires. Also 1 1/2 diameter matches the fork tubes. I love the look of tall apes but I am changing mine out next week for a set of 14's. mine is a 07 train
