Default New pullback risers on my Glide [pics]

Not long after I got my bike I put some 2.5" pullback risers on from Drag Specialties. I posted about it here.

Here is a pic of those risers. I was never really happy about the looks but they did put the bars where I wanted them.




Today I installed some 3" Harley risers (56290-05) and I really like the way these look. Bars are a little higher and further back. Still no problem with cables or wires.

The 3" risers look great on your bike!! I've been thinking of getting them...I don't have to think about it anymore. I'm going to go for it!! I won't have to worry about the signals almost touching the tank when the handle bars are cranked around!! Thanks for the pics.

Looks much better now. Some 1 1/4 inch bars would really set it off.

Just ordered some spacers for my bars to bring mine a little closer to me.

After doing some measuring these are actually closer to 4".
