Raked FatBoy, What bars?
So I ordered a new front end for my SE FatBoy. I got a 14* inverted 65mm forks and triple tree kit. My big Question is what bar should I use. I am going with the chubby wild-1 drag bar. What will be the ideal size 6'', 8'', 10'' rise to avoid hitting the tank. I really don't wanna order them and have to buy a second set.
Here is a picture of what the end result will be close to.
here are a couple more examples.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Larry T

I would say 10, to play it safe and clear your dashboard! Keep in mind, the higher you go with that rake the closer the bars will be to you!!! If you dont use pullbacks, you probably dont have to go as high. In the end it's your call!

I kinda feel restricted on bar type. They will have to cater for a hydrolic clutch. I Wonder it it would be better to just wait till I get them mounted then measure. I just don't wanna be down no longer than needed. Weather is absolutly beautiful. 75 today no wind or clouds.
