"Beach Bars?" Haven't seen those in 25 years. Don't know if anyone has those anymore, as that fad died before 9/11.
Good luck with your search. (Be sure to get really thick one's if you find 'em.)

There are several brands
out there. Ranging from 35" to 39" width.

Can't help you there. The stock bars on my '94 FLSTN were the most comfortable bars I ever had on a bike. they were the same bar bend used on the '82 and up Shovelhead Electra Glide.

I had Wild Chubby Bars WO518 on my Road King, luvved the look but got fed-up with them after a few cross country rides as not the most comfortable for long distance riding...IMO

I have the Harley beach bars. They are, if I recall correctly, approximately 36" tip to tip. I find beach bars very comfortable.

The deluxe comes stock with a short type of beach bar. Its almost the same shape as the aftermarket HD one. I am good with the stock one. I agree with the comfort they give and just look bad *** retro. Nothing comes close for the old school look.
