In the middle between the risers it’s still 1 1/4.
I don't think you will need new cables for 4" risers, highly doubt it actually.
Having swapped my stock bars for apes, I could tell you they do not drop down to 1" at the riser, they are 1 1/4" there as well.
As far as which riser, it all depends on what you like, there are many different styles and options. Best thing would be to go on a site, like Revzilla, put in your bike info and search for risers, there you can see the options out there for you.

What bags are those? They look like they follow the contour of the fender pretty well.

Got her not too long ago. I have loved the Lo for a very long time, but was convinced that I was going to get the black denim until I laid eyes on this one.

I got hooked on the matte look. I have had shiny bikes, but there was something appealing about these. I REALLY like that blue though!

Love mine. Got it all pawpaw'd a couple years ago. Here's how it started, versus how it is as of a couple months ago.

How the doctor I bought it from had it lookin. Too pawpaw for me. Bags are for sale in marketplace here by the way.


MUCH BETTER. PAINT IT BLACK!
