Hi,

Planning to switch to a drag bar on my -11 FXDWG. Did anyone look into which are the lowest risers you can use with tank clearance?

Can you use a 3" riser at all? Can you use a 4½" riser without relocating the turn signals from the handlebars?

Please recommend me some risers! I wan't them black and fat (1-1/4") but can't really find some I like. Wild1 Chubbys are nice but I don't really like their top clamp look.

Roland Sands got some nice risers but they are made for 1" and since they have a separate top clamp for each riser I am afraid it will look weird with the middle part of the drag bar looking "thinner" (but it could be good looking as well).

 

I just installed the 2" riser spacers on my bike from Spacer Jim. Since I've done that, I'm considering drag bars. I like the stock risers, they just weren't quite tall enough with my tank lift. Now I have plenty of clearance lock-to-lock, even enough to install drag bars without issues.

May not be what you're looking for, but I like 'em a lot. I used 5" Grade 8 bolts with mine.

 

I've seen a couple of WGs with Fat Boy Lo risers. Not sure, but they're 1.5 or 2".

I have 1" diameter drags on my 98", the risers are 3" tall with some pullback. The fit perfect and with good clearence.

 

I put a set of harley fat drag bars on my 2010 wide glide with the stock risers and there is no space to go lower or the grips and controls will hit the tank

 

I am looking to buy 2011 wide glide bars for my streetbob. U gonna hang on to yours or selling them?
