You're about the same as me. I would say on my 07 heritage with stock seat my 16's are a about shoulder height. Maybe a hair under. With my mustang wide touring seat on the bars are under shoulder height.

If you run your windshield it limits you in how far forward you can push the bars. I don't normally run my shield, but when I do I have to roll the bars back a bit, which I find not as comfortable.
