Default Night Train Handlebars

What types of bars is everyone with a NT using? I currently have a 2003 NT with stock drag bars. Looking for something with more pullback so I can sit more upright. Looking at the HD Street Slammers and Wild 1's 500. Any other suggestions? Would like to keep the clean drag bar look

not sure, im using stock cause im tall and they are perfect for me (6-4). I have seen a lot with Street Slammers..although the Wild 1s look banging.

if you gonna get new ones, get all black..i like that look. Or at least get black risers..the accent of chrome/black is a beautiful thing.

Just change to pullback risers, much cheaper around $60. from Phat Performance Parts.
I have the 6.5" pullbacks & fit very comfortable. I'm 6'1"

Stock NT bar 6' straight riser, 32' wide.
I had it on my old Sportster, I think slammer bar looks good on Train.
