RE: Fatboy owners
I've had these on my bike for a few weeks now. I finally took some pictures. They're 16" Carlini Gangster apes. 1.5" diameter. They're just right. I think 16's are perfect on a fatboy.

Im 5'9 and the carlini 9" drag bars. Just like the ones listed above, I'll tell you the riding position is perfect for my taste. I don't have to reach and my hands are slightly down hill when on the bars.

I have an 07 Fatboy, I'm having a tough time picking out new handlebars. I got all chrome handlebar controls for XMas, so I guess nows the time to change bars since I don't want to do it again later. I'm looking forgood looking bars but I don't want to sacrifice comfort something I could ride all day without braking my back. I'm 5' 7" I like the look of drag bars but like I said I don't want to reach. Show me your bars if you have pics, and any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you have the dimensions on those narrow beach bars, I can't find the in HD's catalog? How do they compare to stock bars are they much wider?
