I love the look and feel of drag bars myself. To each their own I guess.

I had 10" drag bars on the sporty for a while. they were really comfortable. Right now it is 9.5" LA Choppers Club bars. they are great too. Too short for my tastes but definitely comfy. Let me find some pics for you.

I went from apes on my previous heritage to the drags I got now. I found some 32 inch wide bars black and they are not too bad all for comfort. And they were maybe 25 bucks!! I am still not sure if I want to change out the risers.
