+1 on Carlini. I have Carlini sweeps on mine and love them. Look into the Gangster Apes.

12.5" chubby 1 1/4" apes on my Springer. I don't think the wind is any worse than stock bars.

Not sure if it's worse if you go higher but for me no issues up to 12.5" on stock 4.5" risers.

Wild One are good, but you will have to buy an adaptor plate so that the bars will fit the risers. The bars are 1.25" but slim down to 1" at the riser. Wild one sells the plate for 50 bucks or so. Sounds like the LA Chopper bars are 1.25 throughout, so no need for adaptor. They are nice bars, but a little wider than the Wild Ones.
