Looking at these http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/produc...00002.&nbsp\\; Would I run into problems with the speedo hitting the tank or should I look at these insead&nbsp\\;http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/produc...00002.&nbsp\\; Both say the stock top clamp can be used.

Here's my question.&nbsp\\; DK has 2 1/2" pullback risers that supposedly will take the stock top clam from an 883C.&nbsp\\; Will this be too short and make the speedo hit the tank?&nbsp\\; They also have 3 3/4" straight risers that take the stock clamp.&nbsp\\; Clearance shouldn't be an issue with the straight but I think my mini apes will look better with the shorter riser.&nbsp\\; What's the shortest pull back any ons put on an 883C?

Before you shop for any riser, I have to tell you the 883C stock riser clamp has different mounting offset than any other harley, you may run into problem using the same speedo mount/clamp.

That's another thing I am afraid of.&nbsp\\; I know it's an odd riser/clamp design.&nbsp\\; According to Denis Kirk, these will take the stock clamp.&nbsp\\; I did go to the Drag Specialties site and their listing says they will not work with the 883C.&nbsp\\; I guess if I want to change them I will need a new top clamp and alternate speedo mount as well.&nbsp\\; Still, what is the shortest pullback I can put on, or If going with a straight riser, what are my speedo mounting options using my current speedo and indicator lamps?

When posting urls especially long ones try using this
http://*******.com
&nbsp\\;
Keeps long urls short and does not leave out&nbsp\\;part of the urls like it did in your links here.
