I have HD BBars on my Fatboy and love them...look great and feel fine.

 

I have Burly Brand beach bars, They are very comfy.. But not for agresive riding .. Just for crusing I would say...No back pain at all. and they look awsome

 

I have a bad back so I know how you feel. Both bars are comfortable but my issue with the asps was I felt like a sail catching all the wind on the highway. It killed my lower back. The beach bars are lower and I don't have that problem with them. If back pain is your issue the lower bars are the way to go.

 

I had the same thing going on, found myself leaning slightly forward. Put the narrow beach bars on over the winter with 4" pullbacks and my hand and wrist position was perfect for a long drive. The only problem was I did not like the looks of the beach bar so I removed it after a 3 mile drive. Now it's sitting around collecting dust.

 

I put Klock werks Mentele bars on mine and love them

 

NikonF8's bike is growing on me. I may do a detachable windshield for longer trips with the Beach bars this is an option. Still not a big fan of the Windshields.

 

I have the 39" bars and love them, they really offset my being short.

 

How are the angles on your wrists? From what others have said it just tucks your elbows closer to your sides.

 

+1 on the Wild One Chubby. I went with the WO518 on my Heritage.

Like it was said you will back and upright, not for aggressive riding, but I think they look great.

 

I haven't had a problem with this on the deluxe. I think I have the Fatboy risers on it.

On a different bike the risers were so low and I had the angle turned down a bit, that if I took a sharp turn my elbows would hit my sides.
