Default Ape Hangers

I have an 07 Street Bob and I'm wanting i higher set of ape hangers but I don't want my arms going to sleep or anything. Does anyone have that trouble? I was thinking of maybe 14". Any thoughts?

That's only like 2" taller than what is on your bike from the factory...right ? It shouldn't be too hard for you to adjust to.

Keep your hands level with or below your shoulders and you shouldn't have a problem with numbness. And you'll be leagal in most states.

Stock Street Bob bars are 10.25" rise. I went with a 12.5" and love it.
