Default riser extensions
I have an 08 superglide and was looking at getting those riser extensions, any one use those, or use any type of aftermarket riser on the 08? I want to get the bars up higher but I really dont want to have to hassle with changing all the cables and wires to put on apes.

Default RE: riser extensions
There are several guys here who have done up to 4" risers using their stock wiring and cable with no problems. Keep in mind if you use pullback risers, they will change the angle at which the speedometer sits.
