2" made a huge difference for me-the ride is comfortable now but I may be adding mini floorboards, too. Even at that, some prefer mid controls and I'm still getting used to forwards.

I could reach the stock location fine while cruising. If I gave the throttle a quick twist and slid back on the seat a little though, I would fined myself reaching for the forwards. Now everything is fine with that extra 1 1/4" and my knees have a nice bend in them.

Those are even more common. Look in J&P Cycles catalog to mention one source with many options.

made my own, got a little over 1" up and just short of 2" back. cost was $9.00 for a 1/4" steel plate and about $4 in bolts; also used a piece of 7/8" steel pipe I had to make a sleeve for the brake rod. I had to relieve the shifter levers. Fit was perfect for me and about 2 hours of time. Easy project, just make sure to check your clearances!
