Default stock riser height, can I go lower?

I believe a stock 2014 streetbob has a 1" riser. Is it possible to get a 1/2 riser setup? I can't find any so far, not sure if that's even an option.

I want black clamps so I figured I'd get the size I really want and that is barely above the triple tree.

I think the best you are going to be able to do is to swap the top tree for one with integrated risers. Something like 06-11 had those.

I've got a set, let me know if you'd be interested.

Be careful going with lower risers. You don't want to swap them out only to find that your bars are slapping the side of your fuel tank.
