Section 316.2095 says (in pertinent part) (that's lawyer speak):
(2) No person shall operate any motocycle with handlebars or with hadgrips that are higher than the top of the shoulders of the person operating the motocycle while properly seated upon the motorcycle
.
That being said, I've seen many, many much higher.

Motorcycle Vertical Tag Legal Again In Florida.
Published by Cyril Huze July 3rd, 2009 in Accessories, Editorial and Electrical.
Since October 2008 vertical license plate were illegal in the State of Florida. The first fine to violate the law was a whopping $1000…
Abate of Florida reports that governor Charlie Crist signed an amended bill restoring the legality of the use of a vertical tag for motorcycles and scooters if it cannot be adjusted or flipped up to conceal the plate numbers. It seems that the new law already took effect on July 1st.
I never heard about the repeal. A friend of mine paid $1,500 to have her custom chopper modified to comply with law. Whata rip!
