Default Risers

Does anybody have a part # of some straight risers that will work on the Deluxe? I've been searching on here and it doesn't look like a whole lot of people have replaced theirs. I 'm looking for something with a little less pull back. 4" - 6" maybe?Hope to try a different seat before the weeks out and maybe I won't need them, but feel really cramped right now.

What is the length of them please? What did you do just replace the stock ones with longer ones? Anybody know if these would work on a deluxe?

I have been contemplating the same thing, eventually would like to go with apes, but for now might consider going with a straight 4 inch riser. Post if you find a solution.

Put the Mustang seat on today and just took it around the addition but first impression is ; wow, what a difference. May be able to do without the risers now. I'll post more later after I've had a chance to really try it out. www.westendmotorsports.com first rate company and super fast delivery. BTW Mean green I really like that dragonfly green with the black!
