Default Swival Risers
I am considering putting 2 inch risers on my drag bars. New to Harley and would like to get opinions. I am vertically challenged and coming back an inch or two would be more comfortable.
Also looking to change my seat, but have a price of 500 CDN. Any suggestions.
Thank you
D.

I can't answer about comfort, but I think I have a brand new set in my stash I can hook you up with reasonably

What is the problem with your current seat? You should probably tell us what bike you have.

Sorry,,,, its a 2013 FXDF. New seat is stock and i would like to lower my self due to short legs. An inch would make it perfect. Bars are at a good height but could come back a bit.
Thanks for the response.

Thanks for the offer on the risers. Not sure how we would do the transaction, I dont do e transfers.

Can you roll the bars back an inch? That would save you the trouble and expense of changing the risers.

If not go ahead and get you some pull back risers. Its an easy mod.

swivel riser is where you remove the bars attach the 2 inch risers in replacement of the bars then put the bars in the top of the risers
LOL what an explanation. So there is two of them one on each side. go to amazon and type it in...
