They may have come off a fatboy, hard to say. If you are adding apes it would be a good idea to get 1 piece top clamp.

Look like a 1.5" rise......they'll work on a fatboy, if that's the rise you want. I agree with a one piece top clamp for apes........you need the added stability to reduce twisting.

risers arent bad with apes, i have 16" apes with 6" risers. all i did was replace the riser bushings with poly-urethane bushings, hardley any movement at all.
