I went a little extreme, I need something with a good pullback. I went with the Wild1 Chubby WO560. I find them a lot more comfy than my apes. Check out Wild1, the bars are well made, you cannot see the welds and they are made for the wiring to be internal. Check out their photo section to see what their bars look like on different bikes.

I got mine from Direct Cycle Parts for a great price.

Rooti...we think alike. I've considered this for a while, just comfort wise I just decided to leave it be for now because I love the feel. Looks wise, not so much.
What I was going to do was put on stock Fat Bob bars with a taller riser. If I eventually do anything this will be what I will do. New factory take off Fat Bob bars can be found easily and cheap. Add some slightly taller risers and you would be good to go.

Couple more pics for reference. I like this setup a lot, I'm 6'4" and I'm sure I would be more comfortable on longer rides with a little taller bars/risers but its just not the look I want

I mentioned I put fat bob bars on my nephews FXD and loved the look...here is a pic after we turned it into a supergide tank and dash on:

Like I said in previous post...the turn signals couldn't go back on the bar (no indentations for the wires) and I really need something a tad wider for comfort and also without going to a long stem mirror. The stock mirrors work real good for seeing your shoulders. I would also like to have like 2 more inches of pullback.

I just picked up a set of 1.5" drag bars w 8" rise and 8.5" pull back. I didn't take into account the rake on my wide glide, look good but kinda puts the grips in your lap. I haven't installed them yet, just bolted them in place to see how they fit. Not sure if I'm going to go through the trouble of install to try em or not.

I have Wild 1 drag bars on the Street Bob. Sorry, no pictures. It was a PITA to install, since I had to buy a new top triple.

Found this interesting chart on what the stock bars are so you can compare new bars to it:
