Show me your 12.5 & 14 inch apes!
Please don't post any pics of 16s. I've already tried them & based on my solo seat height & my height they're not for me. I'm trying to get an idea of what the difference in looks is between the two. I've already been on Wild 1's website, but their pics are not that great (especially when the bike has got a windshield on it???). The more pics of different angles the better. So please, let's see them...

I know the agony you are going through in choosing apes. Been there. 12.5" is the lowest rise I would go with now that I know what I know and have some miles on my 12.5s. THey are comfortable beyond description. 14" Chubbies would only be better.
P.S. windshield is chopped; FYI

Cycle Smiths
I went with Cycle Smiths 13's 1 1/4" bars with internal wiring. I am 6'-3" and feel these are fine for me. With the stock bars, I always had a back ache after riding. These keep me positioned more upright, plus keep my hands right at chest level, so I have yet to have numbing issues in my hands. I think 16's would have been too high for me. Great bars in my opinion. The photos I've attached were taken during installation, so that's why there is no brake line or mirror on the right side.
