FL Springers with beach/low bars?

Hey guys the 16" apes are killing my shoulders and can't last more than 30 minutes of riding. im planning on getting beach bars instead. Anyone have pics of their springer classic or heritage springer with beach or similiar low styled bars?

Check out jmcollison in the touring section. He used to have a beautiful purple/silver Heritage Springer...and I thought it had BB's on it.

Here is a couple of shots of my friends 01 Springer. He took off the 18" apes and put on 39" beachbars. I hope this helps.

Wow sweet bike....I'm on the fence with beach bars and the drag bars....my main concern is the money its gonna cost to swap. I would probably need all new cables and then to rewire the internals and swap grips etc. Is alotta money getting it done at the stealer

But if you can't put up with more than half an hour with the apes, it's a no-brainer. Gotta be comfy or you ain't safe..

If you've got big apes, you probably won't need any change of cables.

I got the narrow beach bars on my Xbones. They are very comfortable and not too wide so not too difficult in traffic should that be a concern.

Got some pics in my album:
