I think Carlini has more options for the Drag Bars. I'm looking for the right drag bar/T-Bar to put on my Fat Boy but can't decide which. I want a low rise (4-5") and at least 33'' wide(most are 31.5) I would like more of an aggressive riding position.

I'm either looking at the 7" rise T-Bars or the 6" Rise Wild 1s. I wanna keep the same look, but have the grips a little closer to me for comfort.

I've got Carlini Original T-Bars 1.5"....7" rise, 7" pullback. Love them. I had the Night Train 6" risers and drag bars before these, and it has been a great change.

Do you guys think the drag bars/ t-bars with the skinny riser bars look right on the FL front ends?
