Default Fat Bob Handlebar options

Have searched the threads and have seen a few posts but wanted to see what others might have used on their FXDF's. I have 6" HD pull back risers on their now. Rotator cuff issues and my left arm is going numb (price of getting older). Don't want to go with "larger" risers and looking at swapping out hanldebars, turn signal relocation kit and cabling. Don't want to go the ape hanger route so interested what others have used for better "pull back" position on bars. Beach bars just don't seem to look right on the FXDF. Thanks in advance for any options/advice.

Scroll through the fat bob squadron thread will give you some ideas, but it will be a long process, plenty of nice bob's on there.

LA Choppers 5.5" pullback risers for 1.25" bars and Flanders 35 degree drag bars I picked up from side road cycles. Puts my arms resting at a casual angle resting straight out and still below my shoulders and is really comfortable for long rides. Plus the drag bars keep the front end responding very nicely. Only down side was the internal wiring was a PITA and the holes for the internals were much smaller than stock.

If you had something like the beach bars but fatter , that would work and you wouldn't have to change out your OE cables as they are a direct fit.
