Default 2008-2013 fatbob risers
I’ve seen both answers all over the place, but can’t seem to get a confirmation. Can anybody tell me the clamping area diameter for stock 2008-2013 fat bob risers? (4 1/2” tall, 3 1/2” center to center) I know the stock drag bars are 1 1/4” but does the clamping area step down to 1”? — Debating on swapping stock drags for Z bars and keeping the risers, or removing risers and bars completely for new T’s. Thanks guys let me know what ya got

2012 fat bob risers and bars are bone stock

+1 1 = Definitely not 1"
