Nice Springer! I have 16" Chubby Wild Ones. I'm 5'7"...on a good day and my bike is set up with the back rest is comfortable for an all day ride for me. If I where to change it it will be for the Carlini Flying apes.

I have the Wild One Chubbies (18”) and the Carlini Flying (16”) Apes. Both are high quality (I have had both for going on 10 years) and I would recommend. Check the width (not just the height) as there can be major differences on the width of the apes. Someone on this forum had there Carlini Apes crack recently. Ron

El Diablo's from Demon Cycle. $160 shipped. I take Paypal.
The 12" are brand new in the box. Never mounted.
I did take them out of the box to hold them up to see if I liked the extra 2"
I was going.
But then I decided if I'm going through all this work go 14".
