Drag bar on a Springer 2000

I have an issue, my throttle cable on my drag bar are hitting the gas tank, I have seen a bunch of Springer with them but can`t figure out how they do it. Do I need new riser ?

I have look the search engine without any luck,

Cheers !

Mine touch the tank but not enough to where it is an issue. You can change out the risers if it bothers you but the look will change too.

Paughco makes a converter to run regular risers on a stock HD springer font end. When I installed a springer on my Night Train, I didn't want to lose the drag bars. The knurling does not match up on a set of dog bones. I used the Paughco adapter and installed my stock 6" risers with drag bars. No rubbing on the tank.

i had the same problems with my bike, i went out and bought a couple pieces of thick rubber and glued them to the fork where it is supposed to hit and stop. problem solved for about 5 bucks.
