How's it going fellas? It's been a while since I posted but I'm still here lurking. I'm currently reading all of the pages and WOW there is a LOT of info. I have a ? Though. I've got a 2006 and I'm looking for Apes. I original ly wanted 12" but I found some 15" that I like and was wondering if anyone has any input on 15's? I'm 6' tall and want them right at my shoulders. Would 15" work with like 2" risers or no?
They will probably be slightly higher than your shoulder, but there wil be other factors -- your seat / bike lowered / if you have them pushed frwd etc.. (also just get a 1 " or 1.5" riser)
I am 6 ft tall -- I have 14''s with 1.5" risers - bars are pushed frwd. Here is a pic - keep in mind in this pic I am slouching and bike is lowered 2" in rear and not yet lowered in front (is lowered now) These 14" Wild 1's run tall as well
Hey guys, just figured I'd pop in and introduce myself and my bike. It's my first bike and I couldn't be happier. Has some work done already, but still a serious work in progress.

I know it is crazy, but somehow when I see a 'close to stock' bike I think they look amazingly beautiful and brutally honest , to the point I wonder about all the madness we do .
this applies only to the FX front ends, the FL bikes look disturbingly ugly stock and modifications are a must then they start to look cool.

I have the bike lowered yet but I am looking at doing the progressive 2" drop in kit when I take my triple trees of to have them PC'd. So you think I'll be fine with 15" and 1.5" risers?
Backwoodz, I've got 14 wild 1's and they at my shoulders and im 6 feet tall...but i run a bare bones seat. If you got a fat *** touring seat you might be little low with 15's.
