Welcome aboard Newb! (J/K)

Yes, I believe it is 4" straight risers with chrome filler cover and aft speedo mount from a XL Custom ... I was contemplating the same setup at one time. (I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong.)

I tried 4" risers with the stock bars as an interim setup (before I switched to mini Apes) and my shoulders would kill me after riding for more than about 45 minutes. I find the Apes much more comfortable.

They do look good and it moves the speedo out of the cyclops position.

Don't hesitate to chime in with questions or observations ... the forum is all about interaction. "Lurking" or just browsing is fine, but open up a little and let us get to know you.

Welcome again brother!
