Default Will this work

According to the stock dimensions for an 03 FXDX:

Height 6"
Width 32"
Pull back 9"
Riser 2"

Would I be able to put an 8" rise. 6.5" backward sweep T-bar, 1 1/4"-diameter center section tapers to 1", on my bike without changing any cables. To me, 6" height and a 2" riser would equal the 8" rise right?

they look like they would be just fine man... i would not worry about the cables i would be more worried about the brake line and even that you can bend out for another inch or two

I think you'll be ok also. the brake line is usually the culprit.
