Default Black 10" risers for my Train???

I'm looking for black 10" risers for my Train. I intend to swap out the stock drags for some wider black drags and I want to swap the risers at the same time. I want to add some height as well. I can't seem to find anyone who makes or sells them.

I'd prefer spiked, but smooth would be an acceptable alternative.

I've found black 8" spiked risers on eBay, but I'd really rather have 10" to get the mirrors up over my shoulders. Also, I've messaged both sellers and neither have responded, so I'm hesitant to deal with either of them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

West Coast Choppers used to have 9" straight risers, not sure if they do them now.

Doesn't solve the problem. I have yet to find a set of 10" black T's that don't have 5.5" or more pull back. I like the slight lean forward of the stock reach. By going wider with a slight increase in pull back, and raising the bar 2-4 inches, I will maintain my current sitting position, or come very close to it.

Thanks for the input though.

Just checked WCC and the tallest they have are 8" and nothing black. Not to mention, they want over $500 for the chrome. Jesse's lost his mind!

Keep the suggestions coming.

I didn't say they were cheap, that's why I didn't get 'em

Might be tough to get 10" risers....

I've never seen 10" risers but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Wild 1's has a black 10" T-Bar that has straight risers with 8" of pullback at the bar end. Check it out on their website...http://www.wild1inc.com/orderWO563B.html
