I did wo 575s I am 5'8 close in reach to above mentioned and these keep my hands behind batwing comfortable for me and improved handling as well. as pictured using all stock cables and wires i have the longer clutch cable just haven't had time to install it. I want it to come thru the hole in fairing as designed

My Indy recommended these for me based my specs that are similar to yours:

2"up and 2" back. Easy. Chubby's WO 575. You will need a longer clutch cable is you want to run through your fairing.

Like my +2 sweepers. Ya can reroute stock clutch cable but better to go +2". Brake side is fine.

Well, the bike is at the shop getting the Khrome Werks 2+2 bars installed. I'll post pics in a week after I get it back.

I put the 2+2 sweepers narrow on my 2010. I had the wide version of that bar on my 2006.
I found that the narrow version opened a can of worms for me. I couldn't get away from the bars so I had to buy a mustang super tourer seat that moved me back 1 3/4 inches but it still wasn't enough. I then had to purchase a LePera daddy long legs seat and that did the trick. Had I went with the wide version I would have been able to use my hammock seat.
6' tall, 33 sleeve.

I have a 33" reach and I put the Krome Wreks 2+2 narrow on my bike. Brake line was fine I did a 4" longer clutch and it barely fit. I like my bars. I am using the Hammock seat I wanted to move back farther, and the Hammock did that for me.
