FXDB Integrated top tree.....Risers?
So, I've searched the web and the forum and yielded no results. Maybe my "google-fu" is weak so I apologize if this has been asked before.
I have a 2011 Street bob with the bastard integrated top tree, I currently run a set of 12" WestCoast MX-Tbars, the SBOB version, that bolts right up to the tree (which I love by the way). However as of late, I've been desiring to go the risers/tracker bar route for more modularity and a narrower profile (like pro-tapers or lucky daves). I see a lot of you guys run this way on the "Outlaw/Thug/Club" thread. I'm curious if anyone has ever seen a set of 8-10" risers that will bolt up to the integrated tree. I haven't been so lucky in my search and I'm kind of assuming that I'll just need to purchase a new traditional top tree to be able to make the switch.
Thanks all

4 inch are the tallest ones I've seen. But I'm not sure of any others besides the ones from here.

Craig and Gartec,
Thank you both for the replies, I guess I have seen options like the ones you linked. I believe there is also an offering for LAChoppers or something similar. What I am actually looking for would be something akin to the Biltwell Murdocks or something with a top clamp. As I mentioned, I imagine I'll have to change the top tree or get creative with the TIG machine at work.

If you weld murdocks to a integrated riser you Need to take in account the riser angle
Integrated risers have a steep angle so you will end up with leaning tower of pizza effect
The bars you previously had changed the angle so the bars had a normal riser angle to them
