Ok, then, NOT sure I want to jump into this "fray" or not.
I have 16's on the chop and 12's on the FLH. And I like mine at the very same angle as the front end. (**** retentive and details) Except in Sturgis, then pull them "down" to legal status. FYI - they do not bother me the rest of the year out there for handlebars, only duringrally week. [:@]
I have noticed the past couple of years, that my "wrist" gets tired and stiff after a LONG time. Long being like half a day or more. That's on the chop. The FLH is set so it is actually chest high on me. Remember, I am 6'6", so I need some extra. But I have never experienced any ill effects from "lack of blood", WELL, except to the cranial cavity!!!!

LMAO!

I have 12" mini apes also. My hands are just below my shoulders, and they're so comfy, I wouldn't change them out for anything. In the original picture, if real - just can't understand how this particluar set-up can be comfortable - never mind safe.

Oh...there's NOTHIN safe or comfortable about it but he sure gets a lot of play with it

Believe it or not I've seen him pull in Jack's Ironhorse Saloon (home of the Rat Ride) with his chick STANDING on the seat steering and him sittin towards the rear operating the foot controls.....scooter's got a automatic clutch and is a JOCKEY SHIFT (you can see it in the pic if ya look close)....I **** you not
