If you like drag bars, the Wild-1 507 model might be for you. They have a 10" rise and 12" pull-back. I have a 3" tank life to the ride and pull-pack don't appear as high and as far back as they are. Pics in my photo album.

I have Deuce risers (and bar). The pull backfeels just right.
Very comfortable setup.

Do you have any detailed pics of that setup? I too want to install pullback risers, but don't want to go too big. What size are the Deuce risers?

tonight.....but this is how they look (on a Sportster...but you get the idea).

RE: More pullback.
Good deal, thanks for the info! The good news is that my cables and wires "should" all be long enough to work with those risers. The previous owner installed these lower bars, but didn't swap out the cables. I have quite a bit of slack in both my clutch and throttle cables. It's only the turn signal/control wires that may give me a problem (but maybe not.)

RE: More pullback.
Drag bars with a nice angle to them (as opposed to the straight kind) will allign you nicely. Look around when you're out take your camera and take pictures of the look you like. Look on the net and download pics of what you like as well. You can never have enough info. Your bike shop should be able to judge what works for your height if they have any experience at all.

I just ordered these pullback risers. Hopefully, they'll work out nicely.
