These MK Bars - What is Height?

I rode these bars before my bike got stollen 14 years ago and I'm just now putting a new bike together.
I LOVED these handlebars but I feel I need something taller.
Does anyone have an idea of the height of these MK bars are? That will give me a gauge to what I need for my new handlebars.
(And if anyone is selling non-chrome bars with little sweep, IM me)

I'm not sure about these ones, later models are here:

I think they were probably somewhere around 6.75"

specs given by the maker is great info but better is to measure YOUR bar height since that's kind of very easy

Hey Revig, his bike got stolen... So he cannot measure it.By the way: How would you measure if the bar has up-sweep? At the end of the griptube?

Oh I assumed he found another set, the one he showed the picture of
I will measure exactly where I put the red arrow
Moreover, below is a custom pic coming originally from the flybikes site showing the bar height:

Revig, what I meant is that you could measure at the inner or outer end of the griptube, and if there is a bigger upsweep, it makes a difference. I believe that typically the outer end it considered, but I am not sure so I wanted an opinion.
