12.5 Wild 1's on my bike. 6'2" and they fit me well. Beware of cheaper bars and ask around about quality. Wild 1's are tops in my book. I have heard some people did not like the Kury's because they felt cheap and light weight. I believe they are imports. Ask around.Check out wild 1's web site and you can see pictures of each bike with different sized bars.

I had beach bars on a fat boy and they made my back hurt.

Apes on a King look sick, many different styles. For long distances though, your arms will get tired. Most get used to it. I actually went w/ 12.5 baby apes on my SG. Looksgood, arms don't get tiredandmore comfortable than stock.
16+ in. apes for looks, 12.5 in. for comfort.

I have a set of 18" gorilla bars I am 6'1" so I beleive height plays a roll for sure but I love them and like many said many people knock them because of fear they think you have no control but my apes brought my hands up out of my lap I love them wouldn't ride a bike w/o them
