Default Bars up 1 inch and back 1 inch on Heritage

Is there any way on my 09 Heritage to bring my bars up 1 inch and back 1 inch ? I am finding higher but only need 1 inch each way.

There's several variations of pullback risers available. You'll need to take measurements and determine which is best for you. There's a great selection to look through on eBay. Just use key words "Pullback Risers".

Good luck!

Yeah, what he said. I just installed a set of the 4 inch, pull back risers like in the picture. They brought the bars back to me about 1 and 3/4 inches closer, which was perfect for me. It was an easy install but remember to pick up a clamp like in the picture as my stock clamp would not fit the new risers. I used the stock Harley brand as I didn't want any problems with fitment. Got them off ebay for about half the price HD wanted though.

You might want to check out the risers on the Deluxe. They are taller and pullback and are really good looking. I have a set if you want to go that route let me know.

Any issue with the cables being long enough? Did you have to re-route them at all?

Taller pullback risers is the answer for you. The shortest I can find are 3.5" with about an inch or two of pullback.

As an alternative you could think about changing or having your stock seat altered.

Find some pullback risers taken off of a Deluxe. They should do the trick, and no cable changes should be needed (not in my case anyway). As also mentioned, be sure to get the top plate and bolts also.

No, there is plenty of room for the stock cables.
