Are any extra harnesses or wiring needed to switch between the 1200l setup to the 1200c?

Im sure they this has already been covered but I couldnt find exactly what I was looking for by searching this site

Also I noticed that the reset button on the back of the 1200c speedo is at the bottom and the one on my bike is at the top. Is this going to cause a issue?

Additional wires should not be required.
The reset on my bike and the OL's '04 is at a 4 o'clock position (when sitting on the bike). I don't know if they changed anything after that, but iirc the reset button is attached to wire leads that permits re-positioning. Take it apart, then you'll know.

I would assume that it is going to require lengthening wires?
Also I created a thread but havent got a reponse. Would it be possible to use z drag bars with the custom riser?

The existing handlebar control wires are long enough to go from a Low to a Custom riser/handlebar arrangement. The wires for your dummy lights should be long enough, too, but I can't say I know that for a fact.
For the Z-bars, your handlebar wires should be long enough to run them internally, but again, I don't know that for certain. There shouldn't be an issue with tank clearance. The Custom riser/handlebar clamp sits up pretty high.

I have the 07 1200c and put minis on. I decided to just keep the factory riser on. Some people don't seem to like the idea on here but I am fine with it
