Adding new risers ?
Quick question, i want to buy some 9.5 pull back risers for my 01 low rider. Do need anything else besides the risers like bushings etc? Just want to swap out from the 3in stock ones. I would imaging there will be a need for a little longer wire and break lines? Any one do this themselves that could help out ? Want to order the risers but need to know if there is anything else i may need ? Thanks!

I went from stock 1.5" to 4" on my Street Bob and had enough wire and cable length. You don't need to replace the bushings, but you could if you wanted to go with something stiffer like a poly. JRK5892 swaps, mods, and fabs risers for himself and others, so he may have some good info for you. Swapping them is really easy, but you gotta cover your tank with a thick blanket before you even reach for that first tool. If you drop the bars on the tank you will be one unhappy mofrappy.
