i just went with the 12 in carlini`s which are actually 13 i am 5`9 and alos put there chrome one in riser, and my hands are right at shoulder level, first day they felt weird, but am getting used to them so far so good, imo anything over one inch in riser looks silly with apes

Gotta wonder about long-haul comfort, too
I did 350 miles with mine one afternoon, no complaints.
