Solid Risers
Trying to find some solid risers for my '15 Dyna Fxdb but no such luck.. Everything I've came across is for 39mm front ends... If any one can shed some light on the topic it'd be greatly appreciated

Sorry if I'm misreading your question, but I'm not sure what you mean by solid risers. I've never seen hollow risers.
Since the risers bolt on the top triple tree it shouldn't make a difference what size the downtubes are.

Do you mean solid riser "bushings"?? Remove the stock rubber bushings and install the solid ones so your high bars won't twist ?
I would think that many aftermarket vendors would carry them. And they're fairly inexpensive.

Mayeb he is talking about those solid risers that the Street Bob's had for a while. If so, I have the top tree on a shelf, even have the Loner Industries 1" riser for it.

I'm not following. Risers, and diameter of your fork tubes have no bearing on each other...

I'm very curious if this is the answer to the OP's question. Why these would be on a "to do" list would blow my mind. To each is own I suppose...

Oh ha thought I put "bushings" in there, but yes that's the reason I want solid riser bushings because with high bars they just feel sloppy...sent an email to Speed Merchant so now just waiting to hear back

If a '15 FXDB is the same as a '14 FXDB you can probably use J&P Cycles P/N 5000796 for $10. This is a steel set that I used both on a 39mm FXR and a 49mm FXDC, you just flip the pieces upside down on the midglide. They take the flex out of the big bars and I didn't see any increased vibration or shaking. Some people use the $50 version and I've seen them sell for as much as $80. It's all in how much you want to spend.
