how far will 4 in pull back risers come back

I ordered a mustang seat with back rest and I believe I'm going to have to put 4 inch pull back risers on cause i heard the seat will put you back some.
Does anyone know how far 4 inch risers will actually come back?
thanks

I put them on my '09 and it moved the bars back about an inch and a half. They work pretty well but I think I should go back to the mini apes.

I've got the Mustang with backrest on my 09 Custom, and I also added Rivco risers (up 1" & back 2" cmpared to stock risers). The Mustang seat actually moved me forward a little, and the backrest can be adjusted in such a way that it forces me forward just a little more. The Rivco risers are close, but not perfect for me. I'm 5'9" with a 32"-33" reach, and I'd be more comfortable with another inch or 2 of pull back. IMHO, if you are any taller than me, I'd ride with just the new seat a while before going with new risers. Good luck.

I noticed the seat lifted me up about an inch so that screwed me out of the lowering kit I put on so eventually i'll have to get it lowered
