T-bars/Drag bars

Well, I think I am going to pull the trigger on a set of T-bars or Drag bars.
I would appreciate seeing some pics of you sitting on your bike with these bars, so I can get an idea of riding position. If you could, please list the rise and pullback.
I know, I am asking for the moon....lol
Thanks

I've been seeing a lot of stock fat bob bars for sale . So , I have been wondering what they would look like on a Wide Glide with say , 10 or 12 inch risers . I'd like to see that .

My biggest question is pullback, not sure if I want the risers to have more than the natural pullback, so I figure a few pics might settle that question.
I know I can't ride the stock Fat Bob bars and risers, they are a pain in the neck for me...and I like sitting upright for my back...

The only thing I'm hesitant about on the W.G. . I think tall drags , or T bars might over accent the rake . Here are some pics of a Nightrain with chopper T bars ....

Have any with someone sitting on it holding the grips? Curious how much different it will be from what I have.
I actually like that they follow the forks.

well i have 8 inch risers with stock bars, i'm 6'2" hope this helps... with the rake of the wg you don't need much pullback if you go with taller bars...
