The stock risers are 4.5" from the base of the riser to the bottom of the saddle cutout for the bars...

Hey guys new member but been looking at these forums for years
On my '13 Wide Glide I'm running the DK Custom 'fat' riser extensions, they're 2" tall and 1.5" in diameter. With 2" tall extensions you won't have any issues with cables or lines save for re-positioning the brake line in the two retaining clamps and the extensions look great. I also replaced the rubber bushings in the upper clamp with solid chrome bushings, the riser is now solidly mounted to the clamp, no movement of the bars/riser.
The riser extensions are an inexpensive way to bring the bars up and back and improve your riding position, $35 well spent

Hey tincup I got to ask if you don't mind I also have a 2013 Wide Glide I just picked up these DK risers after reading your post I am curious did your risers extensions arrive scratched and chipped? Now I don't expect them to be perfect but I would at least hope that there would not be bare metal where rust can start to accumulate they came wrapped in the foam but I gotta tell you they look like they've been thrown around on the shop floor.

Up4daz, I ordered a set of the 2 inch from them back in January and they arrived chipped and scratched. I had to return them, the replacement set that they sent were better but not perfect. I didn't bother to return this set, I used a black sharpie for touch up.
