No gloss black riser to match Fat Chizeled Bar?
 
In the process of changing stock bars out for the 12 inch Fat Chizeled bars. Unfortunately I can't find a stock height, gloss black riser that fits the 1 inch bar.
My dealership says my only option is to powder coat the stock riser gloss black. I was hoping to have a smooth riser to match the bar.

Does anyone have any suggestions for options I might be overlooking?

Mate if you did want to raise the riser height for cheap but look factory ,the stud that goes into the bottom of the riser is a bout four inch with a thread on each end , get one longer for purpose , and go to your local ag/machinery shop and buy the length of rise you want in something they have , and they have heaps , they will have the threaded stud and some tube to go under the risers the stud goes through.Paint it black or wrinkle black and fit it up , there's a few inches the of wiring spare in the loom too.
My local John Deere guy has everything I've ever needed in small bolts/screws/fixtures/washers, bits and pieces but it onmly ever costs a buck or two and I feel bad,I usually leave with out getting my change so it's worth their time finding it on their many many shelves.
The Harley riser costs this much https://www.harley-davidson.com/stor...-fat-riser-kit and doing it yourself would cost under 20 bucks including the rattle can.You save 230 bucks for use on dirty prostitutes lol.
I'm going to do this but I keep forgetting about it as I'm old.

Its more so the paint that I was looking to change from the stock rough texture to the smooth gloss but if I need to change the height I will definitely consider this option. Thanks!
