So the wife needs a little adjustment with her bars on a 25 Street Bob. I have a 23 Lowrider ST that I put 6" pull back risers on. I wanted to use my stock risers from the LRST on the Street Bob.
Both have the wrinkle finish, and the LRST riser is a 4" with 1" pullback.




I got them on... Just to report, there is enough harness for bars and guage and seemed to be plenty of slack with clutch and brake lines.... But no go.


The risers and the top plate are not compatible. Holes do not align. Oh.... I guess I'll have to get some. What are folks using on the new 25 Street Bob's.

 

I have the top clamp with the speedo mount from my 2025 LRST if that would help. PM me if you want it.

 

PM sent.

 

Another completely senseless design change from HD. Risers have been the same since the 50’s but yeah, change em randomly but not enough to be cool, just problematic

 

So after some back and forth, it seems the bolt pattern was changed for new models, but the top clamp from Stonecold may work. I'm going to find out.

Other than that has enyone put on taller risers on their Street Bob? Like I said before, it seemed like I had enough slack in everything to not need extensions, just curious when they are needed.

 

Just to update and settle this... I got the top plate from Stonecold... Super awesome to deal with... No dice. The bolt pattern did indeed change, and the other top plate is indeed the correct by pattern, however, there is interference with gage and riser.



My LRST riser on left has all that material on top that is removed from Street Bob on right. The gage hits that. So it's not a cheap easy option for me.

Now that's done, I'll probably end up swapping bars for more narrow ones and I'll deal with a riser and bar combo to get it where it needs to be. A riser will get Gage up a bit, and give room for handlebar bag.

 

Look into Bung King. They have risers and top clamps for the SB style gauge. Tons of different sizes and pullbacks too. Not crazy expensive either and you can run your wiring internally inside the riser legs.

 

I had Bung King risers on my Street Bob. I'm pretty sure they were the 9" pull back version. I did have to get an extended gauge wire, but everything else worked.

So I ordered my bars and risers. 6" riser, 5.5 rise mid bend bars. 11.5 tall, which should only be 1-1.5" inches taller, but also 2" pull back.

I'm not worried about extending lines with that, but I'm not sure about gage wire... The gage will be 6" taller. So you had to get an extention harness... They have one just for the gage? What did you have to get? I will order one now if I need to.

 

Before getting any extensions, try fishing some of the extra harness out of the backbone. It's secured to that rubber grommet but there's quite a bit tucked back in there.
