nice looking scoot man, I love those springers.

personally I like a big fat wide beach bar to make a statement and as it turns out they are comfy for me being my size

Put them on that bike with internal wiring and they would look great. IMHO

When I went to my first bike week rally I saw for the first time a road king with the 1 1/2" beach bars and I was just in love, I was talking to a guy who had them and he was so proud to tell me all about them, they just made his RK look incredible to me.

I know apes are a popular look and in some cases I like how they look too but for look and daily use, touring, etc.. the beach bars look as good in a different way but they are just right for me to ride all day and not have pain in my shoulders or back.
