Default 10" or 12" bars on a Street Glide?
Trying to decide on which bars to put on my 16 Street glide. Im 6'4" and the stock bars are just too low. any advice on which Paul Yaffe Monkey bars to go?

Cool La. Choppers
we used these ....https://www.lachoppers.com/catalog/d...920/index.html

in the 12" black ....just reroute the wires, brake & clutch ....and good to go
might want to drill and tap the bar clamp just for good measure ...

I have 10s on mine.

Don't forget to replace your stock rubber riser bushings with a polymer set.

At 6'-4" you should probably be considering 14" or 16" ?

I agree with Steelpony, you should be looking at 14" or 16". I am 6'1 and went with 14" factory 47's on my 16 SGS. The shop used all my stock cabling.
