Cafe/turn-down bars?

I've been browsing various sites looking for some cafe/turn down bars for my Motomarina Sebring. I've seen a lot of pictures of bikes I like with various cafe bars BUT, its hard to tell exactly what bar every 'ped has, or match it up with something I see online. I guess what I'm asking is for opinions on what bars work the best as cafe bars on a ped...

I think I want something with a bit of rise/drop and some backsweep, but not 100% sure what to get. Pics of your setup with a bar name/model are really appreciated.

Cool, I was looking at those but the funky shape doesn't translate well to to a one-dimensional picture. Don't suppose you could point me to a bike with them mounted?

Awesome, thanks, just the kind of stuff I was looking for. PS: you have a kitchen in your garage? Or you live in a garage?

I bought the clubmans and put them Under my tree like someone showed here.

You have to grind off the fork lock.

My fork bolt wont come off at the bottom so I am stuck for a few days.

I'll get a W.I.P. pic later.

I just got my Magura throttle and brake levers.

Its coming together, another Black Moby Parma.

I think I want to keep it above the tree but definitely would be curious to see a below-the-tree setup... haven't ever seen one really.

Yeah they are clubmans. Normally when people say clubmans they mean the kind in my picture; the ones treats has are clubmans but with 0 rise.

The bike is a 1965 Benelli Cobra 175, sold as a Montgomery Wards Riverside. And that's Mark Ryan's kitchen before I picked it up :)
