No word on the upper triple clamp from Winters but found some interesting bars with 100mm separation between the risers. Out of stock here but this listing has better pics:

Need to check the bolt fittings but should be able to adapt if needed. Risers still bend rearwards which alters seating/ergonomics BUT the wider grip spacing then pulls you back forward {the idea being to hang on your bones not your muscles so arma at full stretch).
Those are some mightyfine looking bars! I like the 'economy shipping' cost of only $1.99 That certainly is! :ShitGrin:

I wasn't aware that your Goal was to have your arms fully stretched and a forward-leaning posture. What is your reasoning for this?

The 1400 has what is sometimes called a "short cockpit'...meaning the Fork/Steering is somewhat close to the seat. So this Goal might be pretty hard to achieve.

Sorry, didn't mean leaning forward, upright at most but probably slightly backward, with full extended arms
