Pull back Risers for 2012 Fatboy
I need some pull back risers on my new 2012 Fatboy. When I asked the local HD parts guy about them, he said none of the risers would work on my Fatboy because they would "hit" the speedometer on end to end turns of the handlebars. Is this true???
I was looking at the HD 4" pull back risers, 56269-09, but don't want to get them if I'm going to damage the speedometer housing on a full turn of the bars.
Thanks,
David

201 Fatboy lo1
Have the 4" curved risers on my 2011 Fatboy Lo, doesn't hit the speedo. If you have a tank lift it would hit. Also did the poloy bushing, really like the set up, made it alot more comfortable for me. No issue with most of the cables, i have ABS and the brake line is a little tight but still works fine and isn't causeing any damage

I put the 4" risers on my 07 FB and they worked fine with no issues. no need for new cables or wire extensions either. I did have to straighten out one of the curves in the brake line though for enough length.. no biggie though.
PS, make sure you cover your frt fender with a thick towel or old sweat jacket when replacing the risers... don't ask why i know this.. DOH !!!!!
