Not quite Hornet related but got a set of the Renthal street Ultra-lows from a mate last week. They have the same bend as the stock Z1000 bars but are about an inch lower. They are also about an inch wider in total than the Z's standard bars. I think they're about 725mm.
Initial riding experience, I lean a bit more forward and it seemed the wind wasn't as much of an issue, compared to stock... I didn't notice the extra width when under way but I've only done one short ride. If anything, all I noticed was the angle at which the bars were, just since it fealt different. I've rotated them back a bit but haven't been out again...
The drilling of the holes for the switch gear was easy, though I got my measurements a few mm off on the throttle side. I also had to get a set of Zeta bar-end inserts, to which I mounted the standard Z weights...
