2in Riser Adapters Installed (PICS!)
So I got a set of 2in riser adapters from a well known user here on the forums who's made some things for me before and I got them installed today.
They fit great and really helped move the bars where I wanted them without having to deal with getting new bars/triple trees on the 08 Street Bob.
They were pretty easy to install, I did so myself, but it would have been easier with an extra set of hands to hold the bars while everything was being done.
No need to get any new wiring, basically just take the stock setup off, put the adapters in, replace the screws and put the caps back on.
Took a quick ride and love the feel of the bars with the 2in risers in place. My back is more relaxed and I feel more like I'm crusing.
Anyone considering slightly taller bars than the stock mini-apes who doesn't want to deal with swapping out triple trees or worrying about having to get longer cables, should definitely grab a set of these!

Mine should be here tomorrow. The first set arrived Monday but the box was empty. David is a super nice guy to deal with. He promptly sent out a second set to me.

No problems what so ever, everything was a great fit. Wires are just fine, nothing is tight or pulling at all.
Just lifted the bars to put the adapters in and tightened everything down.
Very easy.

Received mine from David today and installed them. Took maybe 10 minutes, would have been faster but I did them by myself. Having the wife or a buddy to help would have been ideal. Took her for a quick spin, came back adjusted the controls and took off for another hour. Thanks again David!!!
