They allow me to sit upright instead of leaning forward. Wrist angle is about the same as the stock bar, as is the width. Surprised by the width though - Carlini's site specs them at 34.5" wide, but my eyeball and a measuring tape have them at the same 32" as the stock bars. I could be off a little, but not 2.5".

Good deal. I've thought about apes I just really like the drag bars. Maybe on a second bike some day. .

Looks like there will be plenty of people to share ideas with on the 14 fat bob. Congrats on the new bikes guys. I know I'm loving mine.

Well, it took me a while but let's see if I figured out how to post a photo. In the dealership waiting for me to buy her.
