Hey all, \\; I'm looking to bring my 2008 Fatboy stock bars back toward me just a littlle bit to reduce the reach. I'm only about 5'8 . I really don't want to raise the bars much , if at all. The dealer has nothing to offer other than new bars. Anyone out there find something that works well with that size handlebar? I've considered a low rise drag bar set up also if I can get the bars to come back far enough without too much rise. Thanks for the help. Steve
boy - this topic has been beat to death.....
 \\;
'08 FatBoys uses true 1 1/4" handlebars\\; that is, they don't reduce down to 1" at the risers. Deluxe risers wouldn't work with stock bars. as of a month ago (last time I did a through check) NO one was offering 1 1/4" risers. you'd think HD or any of the aftermarket guys \\;would wake up and offer something.
