Default New risers on 2022 heritage

Hey all, I have a 2022 heritage softail that I bought last fall. It's getting pretty close to the time of year that I'm able to get her put of storage, so I'm thinking of mods. The first I'd like to do is move my handlebars back a few inches. Does anybody know how big of pullback riser I can use, without extending the wires and cables?

@Burbur2 installed 4” pullback risers and didn’t extend anything. I installed 4” pullback risers and I extended everything, mainly because I wanted the brake and clutch lines to be routed like OEM. @Burbur2 didn’t.

thanks for the info. @Burbur2 , are your cables comfortably placed, or do you think I should do as @GalvTexGuy did and run new cables? Also, do you have a link to the riser you used?
