After riding a few hundred miles a day this weekend, found some uncomfort in the stock handlebars.
I'm not a small guy, a little wider than some you could say, but I noticed that the bars are turned a little too much towards the rear for my comfort. My hands want to be more like holding on to straighter bar.
I know I could go with a T bar type, and this would make them wider like I would like, with the bars more straight accross, but my biggest question:
What are my other options, if any? I'm not loooking for dirt bike bars, just something that my hands will naturally hold onto.
I like the looks of the mini apes, but don't they also tend to curve back, don't they?

Any suggestions?

Have you tried just rolling the bars forward a little? I did this with my stockers and it helped till found some with less pullback.

 

These are for a Sportster but work well without the need to buy cables. Notgreat for the longer rides but for around town they are perfect for me.

 

I believe we might have the same sporty bars expy. I painted mine wrinkle black though......
