Handlebar risers on FXDC?
#11
I have mini apes from a Street Bob on my fxdc as well. I got mine from a forum member for 40 bucks. I think you can pick up a new set for around 60 bucks from the moco. (not sure on the price tho).
I would highly recommend this.
I can't remember if changing the brake line or clutch cable was "Required", however I seem to remember it was required. I have swapped my bars and risers too many times to really remember at this point=), You can ask the parts guys for this info.
You will have to change out the throttle/control cables. I got some new stock take offs from ebay for 7 bucks off softail(stock black ones, not like the nice diamond back with the silver coating)/see below.
I would recommend some nice new Diamond back cables, (See my pick for the cables) with your store credit and as well as the chrome Street Bob mini apes.
I can tell you that the riding position with the mini apes has greatly improved my comfort and ability to ride for longer extended periods of time over the stock buckhorns. IMHO I think they look better as well.
Good luck to you,
Cheers,
Tom

I will have a set of Streetbob cables and brake line available in about 2 weeks or so.... after I install my Barnett cables and Diamondback brake lines.

Installed the HD 4 1/2" risers on my 2011 FXDC just a couple of weeks ago. They did the trick as far height and pullback. Was able to retain all the existing cables without a problem. If I had to do it again, I would do it in a heart beat.
