No pictures, but they do come way back. Kind of interferes on low speed turns, unless you have really short arms.

Do they tweak your wrists? Looks like you really need to twist your hands outwards.

That's the first thing I thought of, especially on a long haul...

My wife's 03 Heritage has 508's. They are too far back (and) too close together for me.
Her bike feels like a rototiller. She likes them (She's 5' 4")
I prefer the 518's over the 508's.
Hind sight 20/20 (always is), I'd have left my "Knuckle-Bars" with the set back risers on there. They're kind of similar to what comes on the Deluxe, but not as close- Chubby 503's)
But my 518's are internally wired. I'm NOT going thru that PITA again.
