You might think about the Carlini Gangster Apes. They have a curve built into them which may allow you to push them forward a bit more if desired.

I've been thinking about the whole idea of converting a softail to a bagger.. now some might say what a waste of time and money.. or why try and turn a softail into something it is not? Or a softail will never ride like a real bagger..

and I tend to agree with all of those.. However.... there is one fundamental difference. You will NEVER sit IN a true bagger, you will always sit ON it. So, if that is important to you I say go for it.. which is exactly what Im thinking...
