My new stock 07 FXDB came with 2" risers.
I had 4" HD straight rises installed with no cable change, no problem.
They did make an adjustment on break line only.

Should be no problem. I put taller ones than 2 1/2"on mine, had to tweak the brake line a bit. That was all. Besides, I think the stock Bob ones are 2 1/2".IIRC.

Yes - stock street bob risers are 2", and over 4" you gotta change cables, between 2" and 4" you just gotta bend brake line. Description in your link states that stock clamp will work, ie. they are offset for the riser clamp bolts on a stock clamp. I put 3" risers on my st bob no problem, just bent brake line carefully and reversed brake line clamp on the triple tree.

I just put the same 2.5" risers on my '07 Bob. They work great, and the stock cables are fine.

RE: will these risers fit?
Could be, cabinboy. Actually I'm not sure where the 'measurement' actually comes in. I would imagine that one end of the meassurement is where it attaches to the tree, but is the other at the bottom of the circle(where the bars go) or a imaginary centerline(where the risers clamp together), or to the top of the circle? I measure mine and I get 5 1/2" to the centerline., and I thought they were 4 inchers.
