Default Riser ideas for an 06 FXDC

I recently installed fwd controls and a Sundowner solo seat on my 06 FXDC. The deep bucket seat now has me sitting a little further back and slightly higherthan the stock seat. I now find myself having to reach out and down slightly for the bars. This results in a slightly sore back after an hours ride. I'm tapped out on funds so a handlebar change is not an option right now and was wondering if there was a riser solution for me. The handlebar mounted speedo limits me as to the pullback risers I have seen so far. (angle of speedo changes with pullbacks). Any pics of otherFXD riser setups would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike C.

I have the 2" pull back risers on my 05 it does straighten the speedo but is doable on the 06 you have a cover on the back that hides the wires something I am going to order....

I have the 4" HD pullbacks on my 06 FXDI. It stands the speedo nearly straight up........... but I like it that way.
Didn't have to change any wiring, cables, etc.
