Help with Apes??

I need some help here guys. I'm wanting to put some Apes on my 08 Fatboy but I'm not sure of the size. I'm&nbsp\\;torn&nbsp\\;between&nbsp\\;12.5" or 14". What one do you all think would look better on my bike? Also if you have pic's please post them that would really help me out. Thanks alot guys!!

RE: Help with Apes??

I struggled with that dilemna&nbsp\\;for a long time. I sat on some bikes with apes to help make the decision.&nbsp\\;And&nbsp\\;lots of people on here who said they bought 12s or 14s said they&nbsp\\;wished they had gone taller.&nbsp\\;So I figured what the hell and&nbsp\\;put on&nbsp\\;16s. Hands just above the shoulders. I'm glad I didn't go with anything smaller.

I had 16's&nbsp\\; (avatar) but now I am riding with 12's. The 16's looked better but the 12's are way more comfortable for me.

I've seen some 12"s on a fatboy&nbsp\\;now and&nbsp\\;they look good. I'm just not sure if they will&nbsp\\;be tall enough. Do your 12"s feel tall enough?

Mine are 12.5's.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; The 16's look cooler, but the 12.5's are extremely comfortable.&nbsp\\; When I look at my bike I consider going taller, but when I ride my bike I have second thoughts.&nbsp\\;
