I went to the dealers yesterday and tried some Beachbars out on the demo setup bike and for me they didnt feel right, I like the look of the Burly Brand 38 1/2, but can anyone who has these suggest some risers to use, as I think that the standard ones on my Deluxe would be too high.

That's something that might fit one person and not another. Take your time and try other guys setups if you can. I kept the stock height from the Lo and just bought L.A. Chopper risers. This setup is perfect for me. I'm only 5'6" and it is very comfortable.

+1 on the Wild One Chubby 518. I like the bend and find the pull back very comfortable.

Default Wild 1 Chubby Beach Bars #550
Just got back from the shop with my new Wild 1 Chubby Beach Bar #550's. Prior to that I had Chubby #518's but I like my new ones better. By the way, with Wild 1's, no new risers needed to fit the 1.25" diameter bar because there is a step-down to the normal 1" diameter, so I got to use my stock risers and top plate, which I like.

Here's a vid:
