that pic is a joke, no one in their right mind would do that. i'm looking for something that my arms would be straight out from my shoulders. my stock bars have 10 inches of rise which is 2 inches less than most hangers. 14 inches would be ideal.

on a serious note, could you not get a pair of 2" risers made to clamp on your original top yoke and give you that extra bit of height you require?

+1 on risers. Just don't order them from the UK or they will make you ride on the wrong side of the road!

It bears repeating:

It comes down to personal preference* really.
From what I understand, personal preference comes standard with Es,
and it works best when you agree with the vocal E-philes.

*not available with all models.
*not valid with L bars or apehangers

with the exception of the really stupid photos posted above, most apehangers are not really that dumb or nearly that high or uncomfortable to ride with. No more so than stock 850 GL buckhorns which have the funny turn in which kills my wrists. Actually more comfortable than buckhorns or some drag amd cafe bars, because you actually keep your weight off your hands and arms. dont knock em until you rode with em. I have, they only really suck with a jockey shift
