Narrow Beach Handlebar

Hi
I got my 07 FLSTC a couple of months ago, but I am not too happy with the original handlebar.
I'm planning on switching to the Narrow Beach Bar.
Can anyone post pictures of an FLSTC with this handlebar and tell me what you think about it?

What don't you like about the bars you have? Looks? Comfort? If it's just comfort, they are somewhat adjustable as far as pulling them in toward you. Below is a link to the Heritage picture thread. Maybe you'll get some ideas.

My 2005 SE Fat Boy comes with the 1-1/4" Dia.,narrow beach bars. I think they are comfortable, but that is what I am use to.

THis might be a better picture.
I realize my bike is different then yours, being a Fat Boy. It does have bags, so it will give you some what of an idea.

I couldn't stand the bars on my Deluxe until I adjusted them (down) back towards me. It got so bad that I couldn't ride very long without numbness in my fingers. Now post adjustment, not a single problem. Of course, YMMV.

I looked pretty close at those bars for my deluxe (with the fatboy risers). I ended up going with a very similar bar from Klockwerks because it was just a hair wider, and i liked the curve just a hair more. I've been really happy with them.
