If you simply rotate your current bars upwards in their clamps you will find they will not only be a little higher, butt also flatter. Costs nothing more than a little time to try out! Once you have loosened them you will be surprised how they seem to change shape as they are rotated. Best done IMHO with a towel on your tank and a friend/partner to support the bars from suddenly dropping when the clamps become slack.

looking for options for what sort of handlebars to get. I would like them slightly higher and slightly more pulled back than the stock bars.

Go with a 12" of your liking and rotate them back to where you are comfortable. There are 100's of options...

Went with Khromewerks +2 sweepers. 70 bucks, Hands are higher but still behind the fairing, more pullback and flatter hand position than stock.
