Default diminsions of HD Beach Bars Roadking

I want to get beach bars or similar on my 07 road king. I look at the pic's here and read the threads and just didn’t see the answers I was looking for. Many of the Chubbys and other brands seem to be pretty low and pull back a lot very much like “Pushing a wheelbarrow” as people say. I went to local HD shop and they had a fit zone bike there and I was able to sample the HD beach bars. I really like the feel as they didn’t seem to pull back too far or sit too low. However the bike that they were sampled on was a Fat boy and they seemed to have a decent riser on the sample bars. I was trying to get more info from the parts guy as to what to expect on my Road king. He knew less than I did..
Can anyone provide some feedback on the HD bars? Did you use the standard height risers. What options are available for higher risers and then some sort of cover for the bar mount area.
Also any feedback on Chubbys Street fighter bars on a road king.
My desire is a better look but also comfort. The stock bars are Simi comfortable but do not look all that well. I would like my knuckles facing more forward rather than outwards like stock..
Thanks for your feedback

Didn't beach bars come standard on the RK customs from recent years? My local dealer has a '06 RK custom sitting in the showroom now and I really liked the fit.

My bike is a RK Classic which doent have beach bars but I read on here may times that the customs did come with beachbars. However my local deealer seemed clueless to the beachbar thing and they had no new RK in there classic, custom or otherwise. Would have solved all of my problems if they had one in there that I could sit on with beach bars
