Default Highest Handlebars....
Anyone know the highest handlebars that can be run on a FLHX, EGS or EGC without extending above the fairing.

I'd like to run apes, but would like to keep them within the fairing and would also like to be able to use the stock mirrors....I know I'm asking for to much.

Pics would be cool too.

12" about as high as you can go without going over.
