Default 2022 lowrider s 6.5 thrashin risers with pull back

Just installed my thrashin 6.5 risers with 1.5inch pull back used stock cables and wires had to adjust brake line to make work but works with stock front brake line and stock clutch cable just have to route the clutch cable out of triple tree…. Used a big Al’s mount relocation gauge bracket.

Looking good! Did you notice a increase in handlebar vibration?

slightly but not crazy i installed arlenness polyurethane riser bushings too…. I did however notice that when i go over bumps now i feel more noticeably in my arms since they are more up in air already…. But they are super comfortable and perfect for my height I’m 5’6 with short reach so 6.5 sit just right for me with the pull back.

6.5 risers with stock bushings no bad vibes. There were a few fxlrs owner’s complaints about bad vibes with tall bars and Polly bushings and saying it got worse with aftermarket cams.

I did the LA choppers Billet 6" pullbacks with Guage mount and they vibrate bad between 2600 and 3000 so basically cruising speed I had drag specialties 5.5" pullbacks on before and they didn't at all I do have sock bushings though.

5.5 drags with 1 inch La choppers riser extension’s. The extension’s cover the bushings. Again no bad vibes at all.

I'm thinking of doing the same setup I already have the drag risers so it wouldn't be much out of pocket other then the 600 bucks i spent on the Billet ones they are cool and look good but if my hands feel like they are going to fall off within 15 min of riding they are useless imo. Your sticker is awesome btw...

remember even though the bars and stock risers are 1 inch the drag risers are 1 1/4. So you need the 1 1/4 inch extension from La choppers. The sticker is my gremlin bell. It is supposed to stop me from doing not so smart $hit. Sometimes it works,LoL!

What is that cover under the speedo housing over the warning light holes? Those holes are the reason I don't want to use single gauge cups that I've found online.

thanks for posting this. I went with the same set up and all worked well.. Just wanted to thank you for posting since i never believe the sales websites. Hearing from fellow rider and wrench turner is worth its weight in gold. Thanks again for making my life easier and a little less stressful
