I picked up a 2001 Road King. I’ve been modding it into a west coast cholo/vicla style bike. I’ve done stretched bags, 16” apes, a rear fender overlay, a 21” front wheel and a few smaller things. I also have stretched side covers I have to paint up and install yet. I bought it for a really great price and have lost any equity I had with these parts. I’m enjoying it more than I expected.

How tall are you? I have 9" bars on my bike and I can't conceive of what it's like to ride with anything higher, but I'm only about 5'9.

I’m 6’2”. The grips end up at or slightly above my shoulder level. I’m actually surprised to experience nothing negative from them such as shoulder fatigue or hand numbness. They seem a little daunting at first but after getting used to them I don’t feel nervous or afraid I’m going to drop it or lose control. I can’t say they are as safe and maneuverable as a more normal bar though, because they’re not.

I love it, but to be fair I have a real soft spot for modified sportiest especially the scrambler variety.
