Same here 'cept I'm 5' 7". My 12.5s are adjusted even with the fork rake and I'm pretty laid back in the seat. AN inch forward and I would be straight up. THe 12.5 (or higher ) Wild1's will definatly allow you to find a sweet spot.

If I had it to do over again I would just go straight to 14" like a lot of people have written here on the FUrum.

  • RK High Bars (tremendous improvement)
  • 12.5" all cables, brake lines wires extensions (monster improvement)

I have WO508s on my RG. They did take some getting used to as the hand position is a bit wheel-barrowish. Now I don't even notice.

Just put 2000 miles on my RKC two weeks ago with the 14" Wild One Apes and very comfortable. I will give you advice I was given (and ignored) regarding apes. If you are putting Apes on, go 2" higher than you think you should. I debated 14 or 16 and went 14. Love them but they could be 2" higher
