Default Drag bars for night train

Just bought an '09 night train that comes with 16" apes. Not a huge fan of ape hangers and prefer the look of drag bars on night trains. I'm 6' and I don't want to be too stretched out so was looking at 8-10" risers but don't like the look of the kink in the pullbacks so would like to avoid that. Was looking at wild1s 511s, tracker bars, MX t bar. Also I'm new to here so sorry if this isn't the right place to post. Pictures appreciated, thanks!

I have the harley fat drag bars on my breakout. They were a huge improvement over the stock broomstick that came on it. The trask v drag bars are wicked cool. Depends if you want a flat drag bar or one with a rise to it.

The wild1s have a bit of a pullback which I don't mind if it isn't too drastic. MX or trackers have the rise but I can find many pictures of them online on softails and with anything under a 12" rise which I don't want. I'm open to the straight drag as well, I actually prefer the look, I'm just concerned with having to stretch to reach the bars and that compromising the riding position I'd prefer. Thanks for the reply!

I have 12" apes that I bought soon after buying my 2008 NT, but they lost appeal to me and still laying in the cupboard.
