Tag makes good bars, but that wouldn't be the bend I would get....it's too high and has a crossbar.

What bend do I need? Length?

It's just really personal preference, but I personaly like a CR low bend w/o a crossbar.

And i'd probably upgrade to fat bars, which means you would either need a new stem, or a fatbar clamp (cheaper route).

Is that a name, or just fatter bars? I saw some were 7/8'' and some were 1 1/8" I think.

Yea just means they're fatter (1 1/8").

do all the controls fit on them? (lights, brake/clutch mounts)

Yes, the only part that is fatter is the bottom part that attaches to the clamp.

What benefit is that? (sorry for all the questions)

They're stronger than the 7/8" bars.

depends on what bars you are talking about and what lights ..the reverse, neural, temp, and lights light console does not fit on 1 1/8 bars. you either must do away with the indication lights ..mount them on one of the plastic panels ... or modify the clip fittings on the console. I myself purchased a trail tech clamp set (only because it had fittings for the indication lights) and it added about 2 inches to the steering stem length... both are good since im 6'6 with long arms.

Im using pro taper evo bars ... avs levers ... everything else fit like a glove from the stock bar to the pro taper.
