Default Nightster handlebars on FXD

Hi from Boston -

I have a 2008 Dyna FXD I am in the process of the winter mods and need to change the handle bars. I want to know if anyone has put Nightster stock handle bars on their Dyna -

If so, do you need to change the cables? Do you need to put on risers? Any other issues?

Any pics or info would be helpful.

Merry Christmas to all.

Like this?

I added 2 inch homemade risers to bring them up a little.

If you have an 08 isn't the riser built into the top clamp? I know you can get extensions if you need to. The ones in the pics are with 4" pullback risers and everything fits fine. I moved the sigs to the forks but I don't think they would get in the way.
