well i should be picking up my new streetbob hopefully this week,i ordered my burly slammer kit
today.
I want to order some narrow apes but i`m really undecided on 14`s or 16`s.

They`re gonna mount my thunderheader,screaming eagle heavy breather, and the tuner and stick er on the dyno. should be sweet.

Congrats on the bike. I went with the 16s and I'm 5'10". It fits perfectly, hands just above my shoulders, super comfortable. Hope this helps.

Yeah I don't think 14s would be tall enough if you're 6'2.
