Get the new bars. Apes look silly sitting on tall risers. Looks like youre trying to get away with something (ya, I know...youre trying to get away with not buying new bars!)

you think 6 inch risers would be too tall? i'm trying to decide how big risers to go with for my new 18 inch apes on my rocker.

OK,
New problem. Pretty much decided to get new bars. I think its the design of these bars that I dont like, plus the risers that I like are close to the same price. Im thinking wild1 or carlini style bars. My cables and such are only 6" over stock. With the design of the road6 bars, I think I've got enough extra to go up 2". I don't know if they will be long enough for 18" in another design. Here's some pics so yo can see how tall they are with me. Will the new 16's look taller than these?
