I have the wo500.
At first i tried out 8'' risers (on a same dragbar) but they were -for me- quite uncomfortable.
I felt my shoulders at strange angles.
6'' are better now cause they lowered my arms in a more bearable position.
I didn't also liked 8'' on my dyna...
Friends also said it looked like antennas!
Personal opinions i must underline.
8'' give you ,though,a bad @ss looking position...but...

500 was my first pick but the bar position would be pretty much the same as stock and I did want more pull back.... the height does have me a little worried but if it really bugs me I might go with a tank lift to make it look less like an "antenna"
