Questions about risers
I need some questions answered about risers. I've got a 2013 street bob & just ordered some 12" wild1 chubby outlawz for it. I got them in black & want to put black risers on it. My 1st question is how tall are my stock risers, cause I don't want to go much higher than those. 2nd question is, hard to explain maybe. The stock setup has the plate on top of the risers, I don't want that. I just want the risers & bars showing. Kinda like short dogbone risers is the best explanation I can come up with, lol! The bars are 1.25 but I'm assuming that at the base they're the same diameter as the stock bars, but how do you know,what risers will work? Thanks for bearing with me on this

Something like this is what I'm trying to explain but in black. Are there specific sizes for the bolts to attach them to the top of the triple tree's or are they pretty much a universal fit?

I also have the wild1 chubby outlawz. You wont be able to get completely round ones like the ones you have posted because the mounting area is only 1 inch then goes up to 1.25 inches for the rest of the bars. the mounting area isn't wide enough for the round ones and even if it was it looks like crap with the round riser up against a flat edge. Here is a pic of some I bought like those above thinking they would work.
With them mounted like this inside of the 1 inch area they are about 3/4 of an inch too far in to bolt to the triple tree. So now i'm trying to sell those and picked up a set of these to powder black because I wanted 2 inch risers http://www.ebay.com/itm/HANDLEBAR-RI...684#vi-content
But this set here looks to be exactly what you would be looking for http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLACK-RISERS...632#vi-content
Learn from my mistakes and don't get the round ones even though they look cool, they'll only work on 1" bars

I have an 11 SB and my integrated risers were 1 inch. I think. Should be an easy measurement either way.
I'm running the Chubby Outlawz on my bike now. They specifically say to use a one piece top clamp on their handlebars.
