I also have the 13's. I prefer the look of them bieing closer to the fairing. I feel the 13's blend in. My bud has 10's and they aslo look good. His are a bit more effective in colder weather. I personally think the 16's are too tall. They look like Deer antlers sticking above the fairings. (imo) LOL

Thanks for all the pics I think I am going to go with the 13. Last 2 questions I have is 1st do I have to get any extensions for the throttle by wire and 2nd since the bike has ABS do I have to get a special brake hose, also any measurements on clutch cables and the brake hose would be appreciated.

No need to extend any wires with 13". Throttle and signals can be rerouted under the radio which is what I did. If you want to run them to the same place they are now, you will need extensions. TBW has a green connector about 3" in from the throttle. I taped mine up good before running it thought he wire, but you can buy a one piece that doesn't have the connector. +6 on lines and cables. Make sure you buy the right brake lines for ABS bikes. hdbikeparts.com is where I got my cables and lines.
