Yes they are pulled back, I've seen a few on eBay already if you take a look

I changed bars on my 2011 to the new common bars for 2012. You get 1.5" more pull back, 3" more rise and 1.5" wider. for me it is enough to keep me from locking my elbows. The ride is more comfortable for me now. Only thing other then the bars that had to be changed was the upper ABS Brake line.

He means that if you read through this particular thread, we're going to influence you to spend all of your money on your bike.

Btw.. i like that windshield you have, i know you bought it second-hand, but if you get a chance, could you take a look at it and see if there's a part number listed on it somewhere? I'm debating whether I want to put one on my bike for a few longer rides I have coming up this fall..

Its a wind vest if you Google it you should find it. It connects to the handlebars. Don't know how much wind protection it will give ya. But it does look kinda cool.
