Question Another Handlebar ? (more Clarification)

Since I bought my bike almost a year ago, I've been in on the handlebar conversations. I've searched everywhere. All of the information seems contradictory. I'm having trouble with pain in my shoulder blades. So, "bring the bars up and back," I know. I'm down to WO575, WO577, PY Bagger Apes, and PY Monkey Bars. According to the WO575 website, it says "2.5" more pullback than stock." I didn't think the stock pull back was 10.5". I thought it was more along the lines of 6".

Saying all that to say. What are the true dimensions of the stock bars? rise, width, and pullback? Every time I try to find it, I get a different answer.

Got some pics of the stock bars and the 575s. Works out to a couple inches up and back and wider. I love the 577s on my personal bike

Gibby - Yeah, I'm an Engineer so I tend to do that. It's just not a cheap mod and want to get it right the first time.

DuraGlide - Thanks for the pictures.
