Anyone got any idea if these risers will work on a '06 SuperGlide? Keep in mind the top-mounted speedo. If the Speedometer base/mount holes would work these might be a nice option to get the bars closer but still maintain the same angle on the Speedo itself.

Anybody got an idea?


Thanks much ...

They should work, I went with the 2 1/2" pull back and the speedo is straight up, not a big problem compared to the $ 250 for the straight speedo holder and chrome bucket, I'll live with it for awhile

 

How bout a picture kartman??

Thanks guys ..... I may be the ginea pig and order these to see if they'll work.


Mud ... you had all that stuff apart when you swapped bars .... I know the offset risers will mount up, and the bars to them ...... what I wonder is whether the cover that bolts on the back of the speedometer (that covers the wiring connections) will fit.


Kartman ... I sat on an '06 not long ago that had the normal pullbacks. Will probably go with those if the offsets dont work out.


Thanks again ...

You could always double it up,

I have installed the risers off of a Low Rider and had no problems, except the angle of the speedo. I got use to it and now my wife is riding the bike.

 

That cover screws into the stock speedo housing piston.
Of course this is also the riser clamp.
My WG bars and risers could not use the cover,
not a big deal for me.

JPCycles will probably accept a return if you are not happy with it.

I'd like to see a picture from kartman for future reference.

On my 03 FXD, I wanted a little more pull back due to some neck problems, but all the pull-back risers I looked at put the speedo/tach at a bad angle. I went with HD mini-apes part # 56558-95. Ther worked out perfect. I got the bars in a much more comfortable position and guages sit properly. I had to replace the front brake line and clutch cable with the ones that are stock on the wide glide. Throttle and idle cables did not need to be replaced, but had to be re-routed slightly so they no longer run through the forks.

 

I will be real interested in how these work out. I would like my bars about 1 inch higher and 1 inch back from stock. These look like they would do that. Let us know how it works out with the speedo mount.

 

Will get the Camera out tonight and see if I can get a pic of it
