Default Risers...
I've got an '09 Street Bob, anyone have any experience with the handlebar risers from Loner Industries? Thinking of buying a pair of the 2"...trying to be budget conscious (gotta keep the ol' lady happy) and still use stock cables and brake lines.

Any information would be appreciated.

I installed mine about 18 months ago and they've been rock solid. They brought the bars up to a much more comfortable level for me and, if you're on a budget, this is the way to go. I'd highly recommend them. See pic below. That being said, I'm converting to Khrome Werks 16" apes two weeks from now. Pics will be posted after the conversion.

I went with 2" risers and 12" Z-bars from Todd's for a 14" total height. Stock cables from my '08 Bob fit fine. You'll need to reroute your clutch cable through the fame but that's easy.

Yea, it's a good quality made item and for those on a tighter budget, it's alot cheaper than changing out the top tree...I used the 2" riser with the flat track bars on my bike.

As for Risers I went with HD MoCo 4 inch Pull Back Risers with the stock bars and like them just fine. Found the Risers CHEAP on E-bay.
