Default Rivco Risers Dimensions?

Anybody know the exact dimensions of these risers? http://www.rivcoproducts.com/product...6&bestseller=Y. I know it goes up 1" and 2" back. But it doesn't mention if it goes from the original location. For all I know it is exactly what it says. 1" up and 2" back from the triple tree. So if the OE has 1" rise stock. Then these risers should put the bars back 2"

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I already did a search and nothing has come up with dimensions. I have seen pics but thats about it. If anyone can take a picture with a ruler next to them, I would really appreciate it.

thanks

I don't have any pictures with a ruler but stock is 1" because I did measure that after taking them off and I "think" what they are saying it is 1" higher than stock riser meaning a total 2" rise and the pullback is definitely 2" because it is quite noticeable when riding. Below are some pics I took after I installed mine - sorry no ruler. Maybe this weekend I can take some shots with a tape measure.





Maybe that helps a little?

Thanks,

I wasn't sure if it was from the original location or from the tree. That should give me a good idea of where the bar might be relocated.

All of RIVCO's dimensions are added above the stock size, for example the FXD017 risers go up 1" over the stock riser and pull back 2" over the stock riser. All of RIVCO's risers allow you to keep your stock cables and hoses as well. I have these risers on my 2006 Dyna Street Bob and i love them, wouldn't ride without them, they made a huge difference.

Do you think these risers will work with drag bars? Or would there not be enough room
