Default Riser Length W/Apes?

I am trading my Fatbob for a Deluxe and am planning to have Wild One 14" Apes put on it. What size risers should I run with these?

By the way....all of you with these deluxes on here are the reason I had to drop the $$$ on a new deluxe....great looking bikes!

Yeah Would not go any higher than 1.5 ".Tall risers with apes looks like a$$ IMHO.

I went with taller apes and lower risers. Figured with 3/4" risers I could get an extra inch or 2 of bars, and the bigger the badder.

Go with the shortest riser possible and the tallest bars. Carlini has a nice set up. Expensive but nice.

Tall risers are not all bad. I have the 3" buffalo and 20" Carlini Gangsters.
