I would venture to say they could be a set of Wild One Chubby Mini Apes around 10" rise. They look to be the stock height of a set of Street Bob bars but have a nicer pull back and 1.25" tubing rather that 1".

My thoughts on your speed wobble. It may have something to do with the angle of your handlebars in the risers.
My 13 fxdc, when purchased I slammed my bars forward (did the same on my previous xl), similar to yourself. Looks cool as he'll. Bars are hd 10 in mini apes. However I would experience a nasty wobble at about 80-85 mph. Checked everything, fall away was good, tire pressure/condition was on point. Metric tech at the shop made a comment about the slammed bars, pulled em back a bit (still not fully angled to "hd spec"), and my wobble was gone. Hit the same corners at the same speeds that would induce the wobble before and nothing. Added some polyurethane bushings as well and further tightened up the ride on the dyna. Huge improvement and absolutely to wobble.
Maybe your issue, maybe not. All the other things to check have already been mentioned, and its not too difficult of a job to experiment with.
That switchback looks friggin killer tho!

The OP has not posted since 2014, recent questions may take some time to get answered.
Vanity modifications done, speed wobble created, years of silence.............hope he's ok.
Ride more, modify less.

Vance and Hines makes a dual setup for the Switchback. I have the monster duals on mine, he has the twin slash.
