I agree that the "above the seat" thing is a bit weird. If you have a low-profile seat, that can easy affect it an inch or two.

Hey Bryanp could you check on TN, AR and MS for me? Being in Memphis, I'm in those states the most. Or just post the link and I'll check for myself.
Thanks,
Rick

here is the Kansas Law
Handlebar Height
No person shall operate any motorcycle with handlebars so positioned that the hands of the operator, when upon the grips, are at or above shoulder height when such person is sitting astride the seat with the vehicle in an upright position
here is the Kansas Law

Ok that really makes no logical sense.....most factory bike already break that rule unless your riding like a crotch rocket or a roadkings are pretty low but say the street bob....that would be illegal

RE: Handlebar Laws
true....I dont think I like Kansas any more lol....so what about this....if your state has a certain law and you decide to take a trip across country would you get pulled over for say having no helmet or to high of handlebars???? and would you get a ticket bcuz of the law in that state??
