tinger i got the risers from demon cycles today and like ***** said the hardwear was wrong. they sent me a bolt but no nut or washers, so its off to the hardware store tomorow. other than the hardware issue, the risers are great, no flaws at all and they were here in 2 days. I cant complain about them other than the hardware but i was propared for that.
As for everything else, i got the new seat on and it looks sick, also fixed the leak in my pipes with new gaskets and removed my passenger pegs and those stupid reflectors. All in all a pretty productive night. I will post pics on sunday.
I just wanted to bump this in case anyone else is searching for short risers like I did. The Demon Cycles 4" risers on my 2007 Night Train needed two 4.5" hex bolts with nuts, 1/2" diameter. They include two bolts that are for apparently for Springer models where the bolts screw in from the top down. They were less than helpful when I contacted them about it.

Ive looked at those before, it says in the info they are for springer front ends, so just read what you are buying and problem solved.
ps...I never minded Demons. Everything ive ever ordered from them was good. I got mirrors from them a month ago, they are perfect and look sick. ill be posting once the weather is good here, the rain is killing me.

Yes, and the description says "Also fits all Harley-Davidson models
except HD Springer models."
They fit great and I love how they look. It just would be helpful to know what size bolts are used, since the stock bolts are too short to re-use. Which is why I posted it.
