well i ran 8" risers on mine without having to change anything... but, you might have to change the brake line, the brake line was tight with my risers...

You might be able to get away with it at 8". When I was thinking about mini apes on my FXDC, I tried a set of streetbob bars first. I did have to change to SB cables/lines.... but the streetbob bars are about 10" bars... and required +2" over my stock FXDC stuff. My fat minis are 2" taller than the streetbob minis, so I had to go +4 on the Barnett cables.

I would say you would be within the +2" range of the stock lines/cables.
