Default Anybody have factory installed pulled back bars on street bob?

I was building a 2015 street bob on the HD-1 builder on Harley's website. When I choose the pulled back bars,they seem to have an awkward inward wrist angle at the grips? Anybody have factory installed pulled back bars on their street bob? Thanks for any photos you could post from the riders view
Thanks again

It seems to be the same bend that they used on the Superglide Custom. They were only on there for 4 or 5 days, until I swapped them out for a XLX/Sportster style bar. I ordered mine with the pullback bar so that the cables and brake lines would be about right for the bars that I was planning to use.

I'm planning on hiding the wiring in the bars in the future. The stock pullback bars did not come internally wired from the factory, though I believe that the stock mini-apes do. Wired on the outside obviously makes it much easier to change out bars until you find a bend that you like.

I actually found the stock pullbacks too far back to be comfortable, and causing my elbows to interfere with my ribs when turning. I find my current setup, with the Switchback footboard kit, XLX replica bar, and police seat to be all-day comfortable, with an upright posture, and a slight forward lean to the bars. Think 40's or 50's police bike riding position.

I have the softail slim bars with 3 ½" pullback risers on my street bob. Not sure if your considering black bars but another option for comfortable riding position and reach.

maydaymike, can you provide details on that police seat?

I'll start a new thread so I don't hijack this one.
