Default Heritage bars?

I'm curious about the stock bars On my 2000 FLSTC. Are they considered mini apes or are mini apes taller? I feel reasonably comfortable with the stockers but I'm feeling like a little more pullback and/or height might be even better. I'm 5'7" so the arm reach is a bit lacking....thoughts?

You can just change the risers, inexpensive, to gain a little height. Stock are 1.25" so a 3" riser will gain you height without having to buy cables and wires.

I was thinking of a riser change too. Does HD make one that isn't too much different than stock? Only need an inch or two pullback.
