Has anybody installed the HD Curved Handlebar Riser Kit (56066-82A) on a 2018+ Heritage? I'm looking for more pull back. These are the 4", not the 6". Which top clamps did you use and did you need any extensions cables, clutch, and brake line?
Thanks!
Mike
I installed the Softtail Slim Pullback Riser Kit 55900023 on my ‘20 FLHCS. They’re 4.5” and I did need extensions, upper clutch cable and brake line. It came with the top clamp.
I put this one on my Fatboy, should fit your Heritage, it comes with top clamp. https://www.harley-davidson.com/us/e...ser/p/56269-09
Plenty of cable for all except the brake line was tighter than I wanted, so I ordered a 4" over from dealer, which was Drag Specialties.

That kit is for 1-1/4 bars. Heritage has 1 bars.
I installed that kit on my '21 114. The pics show the top clamp I used. The only issue I had was the brake line was too snug to re-attach and I have (for now) just left it unattached. Of course, I removed the clamp that is in the photo to avoid damage.
Thank you! That's perfect. So it'll reach stop-stop if it's not clamped? How's the overall height of the bar and more importantly the reach? I'm 5'7". Seat height works and the floorboards are in a comfy spot but the bar position just doesn't work well for me. It's a stretch to reach the bars in the upright position but if I roll them back to where the reach is comfortable, they are too low. I'm trying to figure out the most cost effective solution between new bars, a reach seat, or risers. I'm liking the flexibility that the risers offer. Can you get a shot farther out showing the position in relation to the windshield and tank?
Thanks!

The brake line moves fine to both stops, it was just too snug when I re-attached it using the retaining clip. I don't see any immediate need to lengthen it. I'm about to take the bike in for the 5000 mile service and I'll see if they say anything about it. As for the reach, I am 6'1 so a bit different than you. It did improve the reach for me as I tend to sit back and have a Mustang Solo seat. The angle is more flexible now when rolling the bars. I will take a photo further back on my next outing in the next day or so.
I had the same problem with my Fatboy as Flint350 did on the Heritage. The brake line was tight, it was workable with the clamp off, and I rode it like that with no problem. But, I bought the 4" over bake line, reverse bled it, and intalled the clamp back. There was plenty of line for the clutch and throttle.
