14" at the top and 13" middle of grips.....I really like the height, pullback and width. BR did a great job with the fab work too. The joints are so smooth you can't even tell the bars are welded.

Thats the size I am looking at. My Carlini's are 10" and just a little short. I love them but I am thinking that a 2" higher bar would be perfect. I am also thinking of black trees and black bars in the future.

The bars in the pics below are actually bent the wrong way (forward instead of back to the seat). Everything else would be the same as far as the outward curve of the bend (side to side) if I have a new set made. I just don't know what to do. I like these bars but I wonder if the original way I wanted the bars bent would look better or worse than the ones BR sent.

I would appreciate all of you guys input.
Brutus, Im sure once you mock them u you will like them. It will give you that push forward look at just about any position you put them.. If you dont like you will have no problem getting rid of them..
