I’m 5’ 10” and I like the stock bars a lot. They feel great to me.

I am 5' 8" and I wish mine were a couple more inches higher but otherwise I have no problems with back strain.

Take this FWIW - at my height, I find that the stock bars require me to pull my upper body forward a bit in the seat. That keeps my back nice and straight as I wind up fairly upright while riding. For me, its a very comfortable position.

I'm 6'1". I have the Explorer seat on my bike because the stock seat had me too low and too close. After putting on this seat, 2" up and 2" back, I definitely needed the 4" HD risers. Now I'm plenty comfortable.
