380mm = 14.96 (15) inches

AND/ OR

HTA OREG 611 (Safety Standards of motorcycles)
Schedule 6 (3)(2)(e)
No part of the handlebar shall exceed a height of 380 millimetres above the uppermost portion of the operator's seat when the seat is depressed by the weight of the operator.

If a vehicle fails any part of a OREG 611 it is not safe....so could be facing a charge of "unsafe vehicle"....HTA 84 (fine $400 - $20000). Then the licence plate can be seized HTA 82(5).
AFAIK, that is still in effect. But if you measure a stock Harley Davidson Cross Bones handlebar height I'm pretty sure it is illegal.
