Default Help choosing drag bars

Need help choosing new handlebars. I currently have apes, but I can't fit the bike into the courtyard. The doorway is about 33.5 inches wide. So I was thinking about the Wild1 Drags, either the 6" rise or 8" rise....models WO500 or WO501. Both measure 30.5 inches wide. Add an inch or so when the grips are on, and I think she'll fit through the doorway.

I've seen them on a couple of bikes, and think they look good. ( especially on "Chops" bike. Wow!)

Does anyone else have these bars? Or recommend anything else?

Thanks in advance.

Carlini. carlinidesigns.com Look at the pics in my gallery(not my sig pic, although those are Carlini also). The drag bars in my gallery are 1.5 " Carlini Clean Sweeps. 9" rise 7" pullback. Pricey but worth it. Only brand of handlebar I have owned in the last 17 yrs.
