These are Apehanger handle bars.They are the reason people my age have torn Rotator cuffs,Carpel tunnel,poor circulation etc.. but back in the day, they were STATUS. I saw a group of kids out riding today & they were sporting said handle bars. Some had the real deal whilst others sported the less uncomfortable baby apes. They were on Harleys instead of ricers, it seems kids now a days are going back to old school.This makes me happy in one aspect, yet disturbs me in another. I can't tell my Sons or Grandsons not to do something, when I did the EXACT same thing 20 or 30 years ago...oh wait. I STILL DO that stuff.History it seems will repeat itself.No doubt.
