Baeseman, we're all guilty of wanting to post our rides any chance we get, but he literally JUST said he was interested in tall t's, not pullback drags. lol
If you want narrow t's, I'd go with a set that are 1" throughout and stay away from all the silly super-fat-burly whatever bars that are all over the place. This way, you can trim the ends to fit your own liking without worry about running out of grip area. I like to trim them down to where the brake/clutch lever perch starts about an inch away from the riser/handlebar joint. Makes for a real clean, narrow look.

I like the narrow width of the nighttrain bars(26.8"). hence why their on my bike. Instead of getting the t-bars you may just want to accept getting some tall risers and narrow night train bars. One advantage to the bars and risers is the ability to adjust the angle of the grip to an ideal location.
i have considered going this route, in fact, I ran the nighttrain bars on my 02 lowrider and they were nice and tight. I haven't ruled them out, but I'd like to run something different this time around.

Both good choices and will surely set your bike apart some in a sea of kuryakyn crap and Willie G. skulls..lol (I personally prefer the attack bars, they look Meaner!) I also like the night train setup, it's nice and clean looking. There's a dude on Houston Craigslist right now that wants $50 for an '05 night train bar/riser setup. (chrome, looks like 6") I considered taking them off his hands, but figured I'd just save my money for when I order a custom set.

They'll make you what ever you need...mine are no where near that wide, I can't remember but something like 28-30 sounds rings a bell. This is my 6th set of bars on this bike & I can honestly say I'm done expiramenting, LOL! Give them a call if this is the kind of style you're looking for, they'll make it work for ya.

Thanks fellas, this has helped alot. I couldn't find a # for West Coast but I sent them an email lastnight - hopefully I will hear back from them. did you order yours raw or powder coated? I am thinking of ordering mine raw and then having powder coated black with the rest of the front end for a consistent finish.
Thanks for the pics, I saved them for a little inspiration when work starts to get to me.
