12" Bar recommendations

Looking to put 12" bars on the ultra. I want to reduce the wrist angle from stock and have alittle less reach to the bars. I'm going to change seats which is going to set me back an inch or so. I like the Wild 1's 577 but not sure if I'd like the width. Haven't been able to actually "feel" these bars. Any other bars I should consider?

I love the 12" bars I got from Hill Country Customs. I saw them on ebay and then went directly to their website. The width and wrist angles are perfect. They had the complete kit with all the wiring extensions, brake line and the clutch and throttle cables. All I had to buy extra were the riser bushings. Definitely upgrade the riser bushings with taller bars.

I just order some Fat bars by Khrome Werks from Dennis Kirk. They are narrower than the Wild Ones which was better for me. Mine are 33" versus 36" from WO.
