Default More Pullback Needed

Need about 4 inches of extra pullback on my new FXD. What is the easiest way to go? Remember, I have my speedo on the riser cap.

I was using this style of pull back risers with Low Rider bars untile I changed the bars. I'm pretty sure I wont need em in the future, if you think they might work for you send me a PM with an offer that'll cover the shipping cost.

Pullback Risers for about 20-45 bucks off ebay would seem to be the easiest way to go.

I think your speedo would have sufficient cable length for you to add an additional 4 inches of pullback, you could call your dealer or indy and ask them, or wait for someone to chime in on that issue.

Good luck,

Tom

I put 5.5 inch risers on my '05 FXDC and it looked terrible, with the stock speedo sticking out like turd on a golf green (will try to attach pic). Switched it out for 10" Street Bob mini apes and it now both looks great and feels much better to handle. Go with the minis.
