Default Who's got 14-16" mini apes/z bars on their 06+ wideglide?

I'm looking at getting mini apes, Z bars preferably! I'm looking at somewhere in-between 13-16" with a 1.5" riser for my 2011 wideglide. Was wondering who else has around this size and how long of cables/wires you needed. I was looking at the burlys but the reviews have me wanting to get a different cable kit.

Mine are only 10" on slimline risers. Went with burly cable kit for 14" bars in case I end up going bigger. I have no issues with the cable kit and love how the bars straighten out my back some compared to stock.

I love the way these skoots look with z bars! Great looking bike! How tall are you? I'm 6' just wondering if 10's would be tall enough

I went with 14 inch Burley narrow apes and 14 inch cable kit on my Street Bob. They worked perfectly together.
