I have had 16's for quite a while, always thought I should have gone bigger. So, I just bought a set of 18's for my new bike. With my 16's I liked them almost vertical. They are very compfortable. My 18's?? I'll let you know. Haven't finished the install yet.
First pic 16's.... Sorry, they are on my Honda.
second and third pic. 18's... Will update pic. upon completion

Mine had 16's on it when I bought it. I'm a short little turd at about 5'7' ish. They were straight up and down, but I moved em back straight with the forks. I'm used to em now and love em. I do ride with a stock King windshield. You can see pics in my album and one in my signature.

I am 6'1" and I put 12" carlini flyin apes on my 07 road king. They feel great and I can still handle the bike with ease. However, if I had it to do over, I would have gone with 14" flyin apes. I don't think I want to go any higher.
