Default Way more comfortable: 4 inch risers installed on 09 Road King

Finally installed the 4 inch pull-back risers on my 09 King. I already had the heritage bars on there but they were still a bit too far forward for me (5'8" on a good day). I bought a Danny Gray solo and that sat me lower like I wanted but also about 2" back. I was getting a pain in my shoulder blade area before the riser install but now it is really way more comfortable.

Picked the risers up at indy for 29.95, harley has some in the catalog for 129.00. The top piece that has the holes for the risers to go thru were 29.95 from harley, also went with poly riser bushings for 39.95 also from harley. No new wires were needed, 1 hour labor from my dealer and well worth it for me. Was part of birthday present along with a new mustang 2 up day tripper which I have only logged a few miles on, but really like it. 21" front and 17" rear with 200mm comming soon, I hope.
