Default Where to find risers for these bars?
These bars are 1.25", but they are stepped down to 1" for the risers, but they are stepped down all the way across, from riser to riser. Any decent looking risers that would cover that whole area?

honestly, once you have them on you wont even notice the difference in diameter. Mine are the same way and unless i told you to look there you never would. Just my 2 cents...

yeah but, if you look in the picture, you'll see the bars arent powder coated in the gap in between the risers, so I need risers that have a top cover.

Most of the top covers are interchangeable.
J&P's has a bunch of them.
HD also has several top covers that will work.

Just examples of what would work. 30 second search.

heres mine, Buffalo clamp Drag part # ds-290651, also avail. in black. hd ones are curved at the bottom and show where the bars step down. i think Burly makes one that steps up at the 1 1/4 part to cover it completely.

Just make sure that the clamp is fairly stock in width. A number of years ago I bought risers for a set of bars that went from 1.25 to 1 inch in the center and the clamp and risers were too wide. It wasn't a stock style clamp or risers though.

Get a stock Harley one piece riser clamp. And hit the center with some flat black before you install them.
