Default C90T Highway Bars

I do a lot of riding in the mountains and like most of you I'm sure I like to drag my floorboards when round curves. I am looking for a highway bar that will not catch the road before my floorboards do. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Wayne

I personally have the Cobra Fatty Bars on my VL1500LC (same as the C90). The bars are 1.5" diameter and they look sharp on the bike. I got Metric Thunder to do a custom clamp package with pegs and all from Kuryaken and I love 'em!!!!

The bars come close to dragging but I have always dragged my floorboards first everytime. I don't know how close the bars are from dragging but the thing I am always careful of are the highway pegs. If they are out then I feel they might drag. So I always make sure my pegs are up except when on the interstate.
