Default Street Bob trees

So i'm new here, I just picked up an 08 FXDB and I want to put straight risers on it and xlx bars... BUT HD in their infinite wisdom molded the clamps into the top trees....
Does anyone know about the sizing for the top Tree on an '08 FXDB i need one without the bar clamps so i can run aftermarket bars? Help with sizing please

thanks
G-

This has been mentioned alot. You can get a top tree from an '06 or '07. Others should be able to tell you more. Since I have an '07 with a Fat Boy front end I haven't paid much attenton to the threads.

Search Ebay for a tree from an 06-07. I found mine for around $75 for the upper and lower tree.
