Bar choices are obviously very subjective, but I did just set up a CRF450R for a lifelong CR rider who is 6' 0". We ended up using the applied mounts with the offest facing forward, giving us about 4mm's more room. We used the CR-HI bend Pro-taper #02-4746 (silver). This bar appeared to be about 10mm taller than stack with a couple mm's more pullback. This combination felt really "normal".

The stock bars are CR Low, and you can pick up some Pro-Taper mounts and you don't have tp change the top triple clamps. Honda triple clamps are some of the best stock triple clamps around. I would listen to the previous guy if your tall. I'm 5-8 190 and liked stock positioning.
I went with silver CR Low Pro-Tapers and just changed the mounts.
Also, if ya stay with the "stock" triple clamp they will be rubbr mounted. (another plus)
Good Luck
