Thanks hksigman. I like the fat low look of the Carlini lowdowns. They are definitely an option I am considering. I'm also thinking about the biltwell tracker bars with a 1" or 2" rise. I'll have to look for that train you mentioned with stock bars and 4" risers. I think I still have that old setup somewhere in the garage.
RE: El Cajon HD - I won't be able to ride for a couple weeks, messed up my ankle. Have a good time. Need to catch up with you sometime and check out the bikes.

look up "willyp" for the bike. He has some thick clean aftermarket 4 inch risers and kept the stock drag bars. That was my motivation to get some BR Custom drag bars made.
The lowdowns were a blast to ride. It made the bike feel to me like a supermotard/dirtbike with the low wide bars....

I've seen Willyp's bike, he has a really good looking train. You and my brother almost have me talked into the lowdowns. Sometimes it would be nice to pretend to be on a supermotard while I'm riding the train.
I stumbled on these last night (RSD Flat Out Drags): http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/de...son_Dyna_Glide
They are probably a little wider than what you are looking for but they definitely have a good drag style. I think those bars along with the 2 1/4" risers would give a good look. Have you seen these in person or seen any pics of these on a softail? I couldn't find much.

Dr V-twin, I'm curious to see your wife's setup as hk mentions. In the meantime, here are a couple pics (with and without risers) of the RSD Flat-out bars that I found on the web. I think I would definitely need risers to clear the tank on my train.

If you look at my avatar pic, i have Carlini Piston Risers with a set of Carlini drag bars on my deluxe. The risers are roughly 1 1/2 inches tall. With that set up i dont hit my tank...

heres a couple of pics of my nite train with BR Customs bars. The bars are 4 inch risers, 28 inches end to end, 1 1/2 inches thick and 1 1/2 inch pullback.
Also is a pic of my deluxe with Carlini Piston Risers and Carlini Dragbars. I have about 1/4 inch clearance above my tank on my deluxe with this set up...

Also, did you see darktrak's setup on the night train picture thread? I really dig that look but it sucks that his bars hit the tank.
