Default Photo's of New Risers and Center Console installed

My Original risers were 8 " and now they are 10 " much better reach and control for that high speed cruising there is no leaning forward with these babies on ! I also have a different set of 1" chrome tops for the risers but i'm waiting for some set screws that have to be made , the ones on there now are a thinner dome look , I also changed my mirrors using the ones from a 2009 Cross Bones they are a little shorter than the stock Street Bobs , I also moved my blinkers down to the lower tree using the Harley kit which I know alot of people don't like because they stick out far but I have no problem with them and think they look fine , and finally I installed the WG center console It makes a world of a difference turning the switch in front of you verses leaning forward to turn the key in the neck and I don't have that dam key fob dangling all over anymore I can still use the neck for locking it overnight so now i have 2 locks using the same key , Next to do is buy front and rear rubber including the 180 rear tire ..... and eventually Chrome the trees and legs ...

Thumbs up

Looks good! How about a write up on the console install. What are you doing with your stock console?
Thanks, CB

My small write up not much but here it goes , you have to take off the plastic cover thats under the frame above the valve covers and also raise the tank for more room to work , now you have to pull out all the wires from the hole there is one set that goes to the neck it's a tight space but you have to reach and pull the plug thats the harness ( 3 wires ) thats going to plug right into the ignition switch in the console but you have to cut and add about 8 inches to reach it , the hard part is stuffing the wirings back in the hole at the end , there are alot more tech posts on this forum on how to do it with photos use the search option and you will find them , Sorry i'm keeping my old console i always see them on ebay try there ...

Very nice!! I did the switch relocation as well but I used my old console. I do have to say I think you sold me on the WG console, may have to order one!
I was scared to cut the wires so I made an extension cable using packard connectors/terminals.
Got the part numbers from from ctanders in this post:
