Uriel, that actually came with the bike but it was a 16" so the wind will go on my eyes. I did trade it for the 20" that works just fine. I'm 5'11" so it should work for you as well.

Interesting, thanks. I thought mine came with Harley 12" mini apes, but yours appear much taller than mine.

Mine are the H.D. lowers. I have an Advan Black chopped tour pack that I am pretty happy with.
