Default Handle bars and stock cables

Can I just beg everyone's forgiveness now, for another handle bar post? I'm seeing double from all the searching, and am just looking for a simple answer to a simple question...

I just ordered a set of adjustable risers for my 09 FXD. They'll set the bar 2" up and 2" back. Will my stock cables, brake line and wiring reach? Thanks!

It will be very close, and you may need to reroute. Wiring should be no problem.... only problem you may have is the brake line.

just went to 3.75" with pull back from the stock on my 09 fxd no problems with cables but the speedo was almost to much of an angle with the pull backs.

Thanks tscreener. The speedo issue is why I decided to try the risers from Adventure Design, they'll leave the speedo in the stock position.
