riser quality
I've been looking at risers for my FXDXi and think I've narrowed it down to 9.5" with pullback at the top, to have the gauges facing me.
Wild 1 makes a set, but they're a bit pricey, especially compared to some of those listed on eBay for around $60:

Is there anything wrong with the $60 risers? Are they about the same as Wild 1's, but just made in China? I don't want to throw away $60 to find out they're junk, but at the same time I don't want to spend 3x that if it's not necessary.
Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I searched and didn't find it.

If you go with 9.5" risers you sure will need new cables. There's lots of choices at J&P cycles check DK cutoms and direct Harley parts too just to name few. Both those your looking at are shipping from Florida, I'll bet it's the same store. The last thing you want is a box at home with stuff that is going to look cheap up close and on the bike.
