Default KST Kustoms Straight Jacket

Anyone running these on their Heritage? KST Kustoms Straight Jacket Polished 16". I like the idea of the polished stainless as opposed to chrome. No worries of ever having any nicks that can't be polished out and these are reasonably priced for polished stainless. They look like they're well made and ergonomically comfortable as well.
The stock 10" minis gotta go. The 16s will be way easier on my lower back keeping me sitting upright rather than slouching with the 10s. I found the 14s I had on my Sporty Custom made slow speed maneuvering much easier too.
I'll go with the Black Pearl cables and brake line from Magnum Shielding.

While I don’t have a heritage, I do have them in 14” on my RG.
I think they’re perfect personally.

I have the 12" with the stock 4" risers on a deluxe for 2 years now. They have been great, comfortable and way less back pain.

Great. That's what I was hoping to hear. I understand the Straight Jacket to be for all non batwing models so. Mainly curious about appearance on the Heritage. Functionality should be the same as on your models.
Gonna get these ordered up along with the necessary cables, wiring extensions, etc. and get this done. Put it off last year in favor of engine/drivetrain mods first. The 10" stockers are just too damn short for my liking.

They can be used with a batwing if you use the stock risers.

Thanks.
Yeah, I want short risers. 1" - 1 1/2". No more than 2".
