No need to be sorry **** happens.. U have to realize that we can't give you straight answers to everything because we arnt u and we all have different opinions. All the bars you have asked about have the same measurements in common I believe, same high point and same 2 inch drop to the grip. A lot of people say if u want 14s go with 12 and so on.. I for one believe that.. I got 14s and want 16s now but that's my thing.. I don't mind my hands being way above the fairing that's what my gloves r for

You are right. I do owe you a big thanks for the mayhem advice. I think it's exactly what I was looking for. I'm working on that thick shin...

No thanks needed that's what we r here for.. I worked for the prison system for years, started out on death row then transferred to a sex offender unit.. Thick skin comes real fast in that environment

I was in the same position you are, unsure about what size to get. KST and Yaffe's sit a little higher than spec. One thing I read over and over from researching here is that most guys wish they had gone 2" higher. I wanted 12's, I got 14's. I love them to death. I understand the desire to keep hands behind the fairing; honestly, get over it. It's a motorcycle. There's gonna be wind no matter what. My 14's are awesome.

I am going with 10 3/4. I don't like the hands way above bat wing and I have poor circulation so my hands will fall asleep with too high bars.

Bryan I will give you one thing to consider while your deciding on which bars and what height you want...the 12s will absolutely block your fairing mirrors and most likely the 10.75s will too.

^ he's totally right. With 10's or 12's KST bars you're going to lose the stock mirrors; and like I've said before, the only guys you see with that hand shaking fallin asleep motion are the guys without apes
