Fat bob risers spacer question
Anyone use a two inch spacer under the risers? Would I have to change anything off the factory set up or will all cables be long enough? I want to do this so I can do a 2 inch tank lift. Right now I will not have enough room to get a tank lift. My factory set up currently gives my 1/4 inch clearance with bars turned full. Thanks.
I did the 2'' riser spacers from spacerjim.com,and 2' tank lift on 08 Fat Bob. Works and looks great. Plus I rotated my bars up just a hair so the dont have that sagging bull horn look. Factory cables work fine,the clutch cable is a lil tight if you turn all the way to the right. I took off the cable clamps that clamp clutch cable to the down tube of frame.

I also got the 2" spacers from Jim in gloss black for my Fat Bob along with a 2' tank lift from Jackyl. I had no problems with anything. Fuel gauge is way off, but I never use it anyway. I will try and post a pic soon.
PS ordered spacers on Sat had them on Monday!

I used the 2' Jackel tanklift, when you install the tank lift use the acorn nut that is on the rear side of tank for the other bolt on the tank life so tat it matches,and jus use a standard nut on the backside of the tank. When you get it you will see what I mean. As far as fuel gauge, the light use to come on at around 1gal left,now it comes on with about 2gal left.

I ordered the 6" chrome pullback risers for my 2008 Fat Bob. Should get them next week. Everything I've read says I won't need to mess with new cables.
That should do the trick for me. But if that isn't enough, any idea where I can get a spacer to lift the 6" pullbacks up an inch or so? Spacer Jim doesn't make chrome or polished spacers.
