Thumbs up New Wide Glide! Question on Risers...
Hi Everyone!

Just picked up a 2013 Wide Glide a couple days ago! Glad to be back on a Harley!

Question... Can I install 8 inch risers without having to to rewire or redo the cables? I've read the threads that after 2010 they are shorter, but thought i'd check with the pros before ordering handle bar risers... THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Here she is!

There should be plenty of wire in the neck.

Yeah, you have plenty of wire and cable length to do 8" risers. I did on my 2013.
