They are 1.25" that taper down at the risers and controls.

Here are a handful of pictures that may be helpful. I am small so they look bigger with me than they would for most. (5'9" with my boots on )

I like those alot. If I were to make the change to a different set of bars, that's what I always pictured going with rather than the standard ape hangers. Nice work.

I'm kinda thinking I like them enough to perhaps get myself a set. I'll know better when I get my fairing mounted.
