I was thinking 12's at the most, but now you guys got me thinking about 14's?

I'm 6 ft, 32" inseam, 36" sleeves and the Corbin seat sits me a little lower and further back and I have the Corbin backrest. You think 14's would still be a good fit?

 

Keep in mind the Yaffe bars run about 2" taller than most others. I went with WO Chubbies due to the differences in cost and availability.

 

We're all different, but I'm 5-10, 30" inseam, and 14s were perfect.

 

I wish I had gone two inches taller, I think that is the general consensus, order two inches taller than you think you need. If you're local to DFW you can swing by and try mine, make some measurements, and order from there.

 

When you go from 10" to 12" to 14", is it incrementally harder to turn or keep balanced in slow turning situations?

 

I find it easier to turn , I feel like I have more leverage.

 

Grab a buddy...grab a tape measure...sit like you do on your bike and hold up a broom handle. When you get to a point where it feels right and comfortable, have your buddy measure from riser to broom handle...that will give you an idea of height instead of guessing....(mine are actually just about shoulder height)

That is what I did...I ended up with 16's...
I am 6'1" with a taller torso...these ended up perfect for me...
I also installed the one piece riser (top part) and make darn sure you put the heavy duty poly riser bushings in. it makes a HUGE difference....

 

FWIW.Have had apes on every Harley I've owned.No regrets !

 

Apes took my shoulder pain away!

 

Sounds like a country song for a second....

lol

My wrists hurt after a while. Put 14" on and no more wrist pain. It did take a little time for my body to get used to the different position, but when it did, its fine. I am 5' 9" with a 30" inseam as well.
