Thanks.... I actually don't really like the look of that beefy HD riser cover.... so if it looks OK with aftermarket risers and NO clamp cover then I will be a happy camper.

My next plan is to get rid of the passing lamps and mount the turn signals to the handlebar controls..... but that may be a while away yet.

Now i know they are bright but they are not as big ...... In england they would use any excuse not to pay out on a claim .... Just curious
i dont ever use my signals unless its night time btw its led so its pritty damn bright bro. Lets just hope i never find myself in the situation, but remember all the things that look good dont always work the best.

Thanks Brian. Any chance you can get a pic from above the risers so I can see what that part looks like?
