Have you tried Flanders Handle Bars, i got a set of internal wired drags for my 07 FXST and i use the 6.5" pullbacks. Not bad pricing and good quality, plus there is a lot of selections.

this what confuses me too. what u explained is the pullback on the handlebar. But how to count the riser pullback ??

This is about what I came up with. I wanted to know what the factory spec says overall pullback is. THAT way I came make a smat choice in mail ordering wifey's bars. Example: If stock overall is 4.5 and bars on-line say 6 well thats about what I need .....
