I'm going to run the Chubby 503 (Knucklebars) with risers. I have the stock Deluxe risers (And) a pair of stock Deuce risers which are aprox 1" taller.
My question is; Has anyone run Deuce risers on a Heritage/Fatboy/Deluxe etc?
Just at 1st glance they seem like they'll hit the speedometer housing.
And thanks to Tim (Firedocs) a member here who gave me a good deal on these bars. A very stand up guy. A pleasure to do business with.
I would also like an answer to this question! My stock bars on the deluxe are about an inch to far for my reach. I was thinking it might be cheaper to just find a higher riser than the stock ones instead of replacing the bars....Just what is the limit on height size for the deluxe so you don't hit the tank? thanks
Hey...I'm still a stand up guy though right?...huh...lol I was asking you about the bars you were running, I am needing a different direction from stock and I like the ones in your pic. I am still torn between the 518's or apes. I know its two different birds, but I am only 5'8" and have to be careful of apes..

TAKEN CREDIT FOR MY "STAND UP GUY"!!!! I DON'T THINK SO!!! LOL JK...Well im sure byersmtrco has a set of 518 he wants to get rid of ask him..buy buy buy sell sell sell until we get what we like.
Ha ha !!! OK OK !! You're both GREAT !!! TOPS!!! Sheeeesh !!
And it by the logo, Tim is a Fire Fighter (I'm quick that way)
Those guys are true heroes !!!!!
Ok ok !!! All that aside, in answer to you question, @ 5'8" , 518's may be ok. I'm 6'0". I like all the pull back. It's the wrist angle. I'm developing a wrist problem and these bars aren't helping. If the 503's don't do the trick, I dunno.
