Default 1.25" Risers w/ internal wiring

Hi guys.

I would like to know about the availability on the market of 1.25" bar diameter risers, drilled for the internal wiring.
I was looking for them at Drag Specialities, MCS and other catalogs but with no success.
Will be mounted on a 2008 Softail Deluxe w/ 1-1/4" Carlini Flying Ape.
I found the following from Ritz but are only for 1" bars.

Thanks in advance.

My buddy just finished his shovel. Had same problem finding risers and wound up just drilling a set out and it looks great. H had to drill the bolts as well though.

First, you need a solid top clamp with apes for a support/safety standpoint.

Second, part number 0602-0622 out of the drag book is a 1.5" tall chrome riser/clamp kit that will work with bars that have a 1-1/4" clamp area.

Third, make sure your bars are not stepped, most 1-1/4" bars step down a the clamping area to accommodate stock style (1") clamping area risers...
