Default Drag Bar Suggestions?

Hello all,
Looking for some quality 1.25" drag bars with a 10" rise and very little pull back (I'm 6'4"). A one bend style preferred, similar to this:



The guy I spoke with about the Ultima's said the chrome was less than special, so I'd like to try to find another higher quality option. Thank you in advance!

Have you looked at the Carlini line up? I have the supersweeps that have a 9 inch rise and 10.5 pull back...

I went with 1.5", 7" rise on my 08 fat boy. I actually could have gone 5 or 6" rise and been happy. !0" is a lot of rise. I'll try to get a pic up tomorrow
