can i put 4 inch risers in my stock sb bars without changing any wires or cables? also would it look stupid? i want a little more height without spending a bunch of money.

 

You will really have to mock it up and see. I went from 6" to 9" risers and only had to change the clutch cable. But I had extra slack in the wiring, brake and throttle cables to work with. It really depends on the type of handlebars you are using also.

 

i have the stock mini apes. im going to try it and hope it works

 

I tried 4" risers on my '07 SB and they just fit without any cable changes. I went back to the stock risers, though. The 4" risers were actually only 3 1/2" measured to where the bottom of the handlebar would sit.

i wonder if they make a 3 inch riser? i havent measured it but i think the stock ones are 1.5 inches. did u have any issues with the 4 inch risers when turning sharp or any other time

 

better question is, What year sb?

 

mine is an 07 so it doesnt have the intregated risers

 

The stock '07 SB has a 1 1/2" riser stock. The 4" risers I bought actually only raised the bars 3 1/2" , I guess the manufacturer was measuring to the top of the handlebar clamp. There were no cable issues but the steel tube part of the brake line
had to be straightened just a tad. Basically, you're good for a 2" lift on the bars without any other issues.

 

Has any heard if 4 1/2 curved risers will work with stock cables.
Thanks

 

I have the curved risers on my FXDC with the stock cables. No problems.
