Ok thx, will order them. Link says it's incompatible with either the 2020 or 2021 FXLRS btw, are these the correct ones? Or can anyone tell me which specs I need to check if they fit on my 2021 FXLRS (EU model)?

Thanks for sharing all the info about the required parts.
If you go for 8" risers (with 2" pullback) then I can recommend to get 38" upper clutch cable 37200380 as the 35" was too short to go through the hole like the stock one does.
Also 69201795 already contains 2 extensions in the pack for the turn signal wires.
ABS brakes can be bled using reverse bleeding technique.
Being 5'6" the swap was mandatory and the handling is much better together with the comfort.
All the best!

Bear in mind the stock risers are 4" with no pullback. Can't see how going with 4.5" or 5.5" risers would make enough difference to be worth the trouble. I went with the Drag 6.5" which has 1" pullback, and really like the improvement. As mentioned, no wire extensions needed.

I put 5.5 drag on and found them to be a good improvement. When I put the Hd tall boy seat on it sets you back and up so I decided to go with 6.5. Problem was at the time there were not in stock anywhere. I added 1 inch LA choppers riser extension’s. The 6.5 with the bars rolled down is very comfortable. The brake banjo fitting needs to be turned down. There is slack in the turn signal wires that needs to be pulled. Very easy install. I also had to buy longer grade 8 bolts to run the riser extension’s. Not a big fan of the stock studs anyways.

Still running stock bars. The pullback risers made a positive difference, but I want to go higher.

Your setup would probably work great for me. If you’re looking at going to a different setup let me know I might be interested in your riser/poly bushing setup
