I looked at the wild ones knuckle bars for a while and ended up going with the mentele bars instead. I'm very happy with them. Good riding position and look good too. Here's some pics. Sorry bout the links, only method I have available right now (at least as far as I know)

I had them on my bike..And with 1.5" risers i leaned to far forward for my taste. I'm only 5"10". The bars are made nicely though. Those bars with different risers would be cool.

here's my link of my old set-up.... http://wild1inc.com/503ct.html

I'm 5'10" also and have the stock risers on the bike in my sig. I'd love these bars more with about 2 additional inches of pullback. I installed some pullback risers but they looked like crap so I reinstalled the stock risers and just live with a little shoulder pain.

Default I forgot the picture...

and I love the way they bars look. In case you were wondering the grips are the Kuryakyn ISO grips.

Are those bars the WO503??? They look completely different from other pics I have seen... A lot more pullback than what I've seen...?

My WO503 Bars are getting installed as we speak. :-) I hope I like them! The stock 2012 Fat Boy Lo bars forced me to lean back a little too much. Lets see how these new ones will feel.
