I'm trying to decide between 12"-16" tbars...thanks to the dude that posted his height, weight, and the shot while riding, that really helps for reference! I'm 6'1, 230 lbs, I'll probably go with 16" t bars...people who go low almost always say they wish they'd bought taller bars...

Yep, that's me. Put 8" wild1 chubbys and I could definitely have gone for 10's or even 12's. On well, it's on the list.

Yeah well, since I do have a '00 WIDE GLIDE front end on my SUPER GLIDE, I think the rake in the trees will bring the t bars closer to my face than usual, so I'm reconsidering te 16" t bars purchase. Can't be that bad, right?

True that. I'll probably just go with 12's since I have Wide Glide front end and the rake will the put the bars closer to me.
