Default New Take on Bars??

Hey guys, gotta question about the new bike? i want bars, but looking for something different than going towards ape hangars. I really like the drag bar feel/position from all the bikes I've been on with those. The rise on the stock bars is good; happy with that. But wrist angle and that down angle where the grips are is what I want to move. I wouldn't mind if the rise was a little less, just want to straighten out the wrist part for a flatter, more 'drag bar' feel. I don't know if drag bar is the wrong term (or inappropriate for this section, lol), but don't know how else to describe it. Thanks guys!

I personaly wouldnt go with that type of set up as it doesnt flow with the street glide batwing fairing but ultimatley it's your bike. Here's a thread kinda asking the same thing: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...drag-bars.html
