I have 4 inch risers on my Bob. You can see them in my photo gallery.

I am not sure where you can buy them because a buddy gave them to me.

You can use the stock cables and everything but the front brake line will be VERY tight.

Good luck.

I have 4"ers on mine. I had to change throttle, idle, and clutch cables. BUT, in the last post like this that I responded to, someone said that they were able to change their risers without changing cables. There was no way I was getting away without changing them, so if I were you I would count on doing it.

Oh yeah, and I had to bend the hard part of the brake line to avoid changing it to a longer one. So if you don't want to bend your brake line, count on changing that too.

throtle cables , u need to break the plastic clip under the tank to make it work, this allows the cables to go higher into the tank hullow
i done mine easy, but yes without the top plate they move around to much, ive now put on 16" apes
