Default Deluxe Beach Bars
I know it has probably been covered a cajillion times, but I am just wanting to clarify some things. I am wondering if the 1" Burly bars can be used with the stock risers on an 06 deluxe? I like the stock risers, but I notice a lot of people running the wild one chubby's with BB's. Just wondering why this is done. Do the stock risers make them too high? Thanks for the help.

People want to eliminate the pullback on the stock deluxe risers. Yes, you can use the bars that are stepped down to 1" or 1" bars with stock risers.

Thanks for the quick reply. What is the typical riser length people go with when swaping risers? 1.5" or 3.5" or is it something different?

I've got 1,1/4 Burlys just fitted, infact I'm getting it back today, the stock risers are just too high, I went with 1,1/2 risers, look perfect, IMO.
