Default street glide handlebars

Has anyone purchased the Harley Touring Pull Back Handlebar Kit #55914-98 aka beach cruiser handlebars? I purchased some of these beach cruisers for my '97 Road King and loved them- they kept my upper back area from feeling tight on long journeys. My concern is that these pull back handlebars work well and still look cool with the bat wing faring.

I know what you mean about stiff back. On long trips with my SG I'm finding my left shoulder blade aches like a ****. Never had that problem with my Fatboy.

I'll be interested to see if anyone has done this mod.

I been thinking about going with the pull back bars on my SG. (55914-98) I am only 5'8 and at times my elbow gets sore. I am thinking about getting the corbin close solo. Would this be a bad combo? How do the pulback bars look?
