Handlebar change question

A friend of mine that use to have an 06 SE fatboy Gave me a complete set of 1 1/4 " internal wired bars and the riser/clampwith factory spun face tach assy that he had removed when he got carlini bars. I was considering chaging my stock 08 FXDC bars for something with less pullback. ...Waddaya think ?? has anyone put similar bars on their dyna and how do you like the riding position ??

the whole assembly looks JUST like this :

i Ride a 99 Super, when i bought it i delt with some super gay "ram horn" bars that sat in your lap... then went to the FXDX factory black bars i got off the guy i bought the bike from. . . those were super comfortable, But now im in the middle of powdercoating/installing some one piece, 6'' rise, drag bars. Im not sure if its going to be comfortable or not, but the golden rule is "if its comfortable, it probably doesnt look good" (in most cases i guess).... But the best way to find out is you and a buddy, on a saturday with a case swap out some bars...see if you like them, if you dont..put the other ones back on...no biggie.

The bars pictured in the link above look to me like beach bars. I have 1 1/4" Fat Boy bars and risers on my Fat Bob and love the way they ride, they're very comfortable.
