I've listed the Wild1 risers for sale in the classified section. For what it would cost me to send them back (restocking fee, shipping etc.) I'm better off just taking the loss and selling them outright.
I put 9.5" pullback risers on mine and it works but the wires do need to be lengthened. Bike is way more comfortable now.

I had 6.5" pullbacks on mine and now have some 8" pullback t-bars. Didn't have to do anything with either. When I run the cables in the new bars, I will have to lengthen them. Pics of the new bars can be seen in the sig pic, or in my profile.

EDIT :: Oh yeah, like mentioned above, since I didn't run my wires internal yet, it was a PITA getting the clamps back together on the bars. They are actually not all the way up on the bars, because I couldn't make it fit. Not that big a deal, but it does bug me, that's why I plan on running them internal when time permits.

i have 6" pull backs and i'm still looking for alittle more rise and pullback. think i'm going to buy a set of tbars with 8 or 9" rise and pull back. with the 6: pullbacks i still have a lot of wire room to play with. i've been told even with 9" you still have some room.

Default Pullback risers....

I need them. I'm sort of a midget...5'5" on a good day and I just feel like I am leaning forward like I am riding a crotch rocket again.

I want just the risers though because that involves, what, a couple of bolts and nuts to be turned, place the new one and then tighten them down right? I would like to get some BLACK risers....

What is the longest pullback I can get without having to replace the clutch and brake lines?

I went with 8.5 rise with roughly 4.5" pullback and 32" wide, yeah watch your width cause i think the stock drag bars are 29" wide. I only had to lengthen the wiring (internal run), but the cables are fine.

Default NT Risers

Anyone changing risers on FXSTB have the OEM risers and clamp you want to get rid of? Let me know might try an experiment with a set.

Thx

You thinking about putting an extension on the risers?
