Default my custom risers have arrived

br custom cycles risers.


what's so special about em.... they have been machined to run the wiring internally through the risers!!!! they are sweet. He makes a kit to run the wiring through the bolts. The bolts are 3/4"... Had him machine a 1/2" through the risers, and set up to accept the 3/4" kit. Also had them powdercoated gloss black. They are 8" risers. www.brcustomcycles.com is his website. He makes killer custom handlebars.... will custom make anything handlebar wise.

have not installed em yet, the trees are at powdercoater, due to be picked up tomorrow. Gonna run my night train drag bars with em. If I decide I still want more height, I will run em with a night rod bar. The bushings are red cause it's the only bushing he has found that will work with the 3/4" bolts. Only a bit might be seen from the bottom of the tree(washers cover em up good) so no big deal.

Question about rider position. Does that bar/riser setup have you leaning forward very much? I've been looking for a riser setup that will give me close to the stock FB feel with maybe an inch or so more pullback. Do you think the 8" risers with stock bars will fit well. I can't seem to find any 8" risers with a pullback. Do you have any pics of you in riding position on the bike? Thx

Oh: BTW Those risers you have are really clean. That's a great idea running the wires through the bolts.

They look nice and you will enjoy them , I have on the Night Rod Special bars and love them they are just right better than a drag bar there is no leaning forward and i have short arms , i thought the 8" risers ( pictured ) would be fine for me but after a couple of weeks i had to order 10" for a more comfortable feel on the shoulders the extra 2" will also take the slack out of all my cables/lines , I also ordered a extra set of tops in chrome to change them when i want , i have the signal relocation kit but i'm waiting for the risers to come in...
