Default riser bushings

I'm gathering parts to install apes on my 13' wide glide. What kind of riser bushings do I need? 14" carlini's on drag specialties 1.5" risers with 1 piece top clamp. Also what length studs?

I used Alloy Art but I don't think it matters & HD poly bushings will work. Whatever you use, don't expect rigid stiffness as there will still be some flex (unless you go full solid bushings).

What studs are you referring to? Do the risers thread from the bottom or the top? If they thread from the bottom then just re-use the stock studs. If they thread from the top then I recall mine being around 2.5", but you'll have to measure. Top clamp should have it's own studs included.

What cables are you getting?

They thread from the bottom. I wasn't sure if I could use the stock ones. I got the burly kit for cables. Would have liked to get magnums but $ is adding up.
