I have wild 1 wo507 bars they are 10" rise pullback bars. I find them to be a little short for me and too much pullback. S I just ordered some west coast t bars in 12". By the way I am 5'6". I say go 12".

Do you want T-bars or tall drag bars with pull back? There is a difference...

If t-bars, then I would say 12's. I have 10s and they were too short, so raised them an inch to get 11s which are perfect for me.

with tall drag bars with pull back you don't need the height because you have, well, more pull back. So you could be fine with some 8s or 10s.

Default tbars

stick with made in the USA, use one of these 3 small companys.

deathsquadmc.net

westcoast-tbars.com

or my favorite forbidden risers with protaper dirt bike bars IMO the trickest looking set up available, and you can roll your bars forward or back. cant do that with tbars.

I'm 5'10, wouldn't recommend less than 12''. 12'' will also work with stock cables on a streetbob.

Like most on here I've found 12 to be ideal, especially if you throw a quarter fairing on

I was always thinking 10 but the common answer seems to be 12. You guys don't think 12 would be tall? I'd really just like to sit/ride one before ordering!
