Handlebars

I have the T-Bars, a lot more control when going into turns at speed for me... totally changed the way the Rocket handles... and they do look kick azz



...since the picture, I've lowered them a little more so they are close to the gauges.
 
It looks like several have missed that this is the Touring forum.

Last time I checked the T-bars would not fit the Touring model. As far as I know the Rivco risers are the only viable option. I fitted a set of Thunderbird bars for awhile. I really liked the grip angle much better but even with the Rivco risers the reach was too much, not enough pullback to be comfortable.
 
Bars

I have the Rivco risers, but the wrist angle on the stock bars bites. My hands go numb after awhile unless I turn my hand position. I use to put Heritage Softtail bars on my Road Kings. What is a good bar that will turn the hands out a little?

Do those Harley bars have enough pull back? If so, put them on. I tried a set of Thunderbird bars but the pull back wasn't enough and the reach made longer rides uncomfortable.

Its tough to get enough pull back and still have a wrist angle that's comfortable.

You might check this site, they seem to have a lot of options.

I'm running Biltwell Frisco bars on Biltwell 1" risers, might not be the most comfortable for everyone though and requires drilling out triple tree for larger bolt

Had to do the same thing for the 5 inch risers I'm running.
if you're not adverse to that option then ANY harley risers,
and any big bore (that's humorous) harley bars will fit.
find whatever is comfortable to you, and get it done...
