Default TBars on FXDL

Just trying to figure out what size tbars in need to order for my 04 fxdl. I like the look of t-bars. I'm about 5'8" and want the bars to be at about sholder height. Anyone have any suggestions or have any experience with westcoast t bars. Thanks.

Not saying this is the case but has anyone noticed the drastic increase of SOA like bikes? I personally used to think T bars were great, now after seing more and more on the street I hate em.

AZ, this thread is more for advice than opinions, man.

TMC, you'd probably be good with some 10" or 12" bars.

West Coast T bars are great, go higher if you want even I have 10''s, oh and the style was around way before the tv show but I have noticed more like they said.
