Default Risers for 06WG

Anyone know where I can get risers for my '06 WG which has 1-1/2" bar at the clamp. I can only find 1" tall. The dealer can't get them. I want to raise the bar as much as the cables can stand, just 2" higher would be better.

Thanks

I was assumeing the 1 1/2" was the height of the risers not the diam of the bar... If it's a 06 the diam. is 1".." if it's a 07 the Diam. is 1 1/4" as is the Risers. There are 1 1/4" and 1 1/2" dia. Bar Risers out there if this is the case Check Drag Spec...

I just put 1 1/4" bars on mine and I was looking for a clamp for 1 1/4" and they are rare and expensive. Can't remember seeing much for 1 1/2" bars although it seems there might have been some. I ended up going with individual clamps from HD, the ones that go on the new WG's with the 1 1/4" stock bars. Good luck

Mike I think Accutronics may have them and also NYC Choppers makes them but if I remember they were 355.00 wich is nuts for a pair of risers.

Stock 06 WideGlide bars are 1.25 inch diameter.

Inch and a half would have to be an aftermarket piece.
