Not sure why you say you need risers, unless you are worried about the turn signals hitting the tank (which shouldn't happen with Superbike bars, even with only 1" risers.) I run a flat drag bar with the stock 1" SB risers. Definitely had to shorten cables since the SB has mini apes as stock.

Before I switched to my ape hangers I fabricated 2.5 inch spacers (just couldn't deal with how low the stock bars were) and they fit but I don't think I could have gone any bigger with the stock cables. Plenty of wiring though. Didn't have to modify the wiring at all for my 16 inch apes.
