Default Fatboy Lo risers

Has anyone tried the HD risers part #56269-09? Will they fit without cable changes?

I have them on my bike and they fit with the original cables. However; having said that, it really didn't help much.

My back still gets sore after riding for more than an hour. I'm going to replace the risers and handlebars with something else to get a more comfortable riding position.

I can recommend the Wild 1 Chubby bars. They gave me about 14" of pullback and 4" of rise and I have no more back pain when riding. But you will need to change out all the cables. But trust me...it's worth it.

jbg,

What model # are the Wild 1 Chubby bars? Where did you get the cables?

Looks great!! That's something I'm thinking about getting.

Thanks Chief!

They're the http://www.wild1inc.com/orderWO560B.html bars. I got everything through my local HD. I bought it all on a double VIP points day so that's like getting 20% off. Bars, grips, cables and everything needed cost a little over $700 (-20%). If you do it, try to find a friend to do the install with. It can get pricey having HD do the internal wireing and install. Good Luck!
