Default Bar suggestions other than apes or beachbars

I know this has probably been asked to death, but i am just looking for some suggestions on which route to go. Other than Apes and Beach Bars, what other kind of bars look good on a Fatty? I am torn. Rode a Sporty with drags and I know that's out, so i am just looking for some ideas...thanks.

Get some t bars. Check out the LA Choppers mid and high club. They are quite nice looking.
I am getting a set for my sporty and will post pics once they are on.

I put Big Horns (HD# 56562-95) on my '03 FLSTCI, with 4 1/2 in pull back risers. I hated the way my wrists felt with the Heritage stock bars. They are real comfortable. Looks almost stock, but a little higher, and much better pullback. Didn't have to change any cables, and only had to move my break line a little behind the forks.
