Default Pull back riser kit for my 2012 Super Glide Custom
Just wondering if anybody would comment on the 4" curved riser kit. I have a 2012 Super Glide Custom.
Part #56066-82A. Would they work without changing out any cables or wires?
Looking to get handlebars a bit closer to me. I want to do job myself.
Dealership always wants to pad the bill as much as they can.

I put 4-1/2 pull backs on my 2012 SGC. No problem with cables but I think any more and the brake line would be too short

It'll fit straight on. Had them on my 12 FXDC no problems at all. Just pull any excess harness needed from out of the head stem grommets. The clutch and brakes cables are fine.

It will work, but it kinda looks funny with the handlebars

You shouldn't have any problems with the 4" risers. I put the 6" risers on my 08 FXDC using Low Rider bars and had no problems. You can see the results in my pictures.

I have 4/12" curved on my 2009 FXDC and I agree with BMyers that anything more would probably run
out of cable.

Just put on the 4 1/2" curved risers today. WOW! There is a very big difference!

Kind of feels like my 2002 Wide Glide with mini ape hangers I once owned.
