I am having the same problem. I was wondering the following....1. What is the stock raisers for a '03 FXST. 2. I am looking at Harley pn 56079-93 which have raise on the inside of 10". Then do I get 4 or 6" pullback raisers....Harley brand..
thanks

I've got 16" apes from HCC with 2" risers. I'm 6'0" and they are perfect for me.

14" sweeping beaters from BR Customs. I love them. I'm 5'10" and with my lower seat they put my hands just at or a little above shoulder. My bro is 6'1" and he loves the ride as well they are just a tad below shoulder height for him

You do not need pullback risers with apes as you can adjust the angle by just pulling them back in the clamp a bit. I'm 5'9" with 16"'s and whatever the stock risers on my 02 fatboy are.

I like this thread, keep it goin. I am in the middle of the same decision. I am chopping the neck of my FXST and buying a springer front end. Not sure on the riser and ape sizes yet though. I am thinking 4" rise with 12" Bars. Any pics deffinetly helps.
