I recently posted a thread on advice concerning risers on my Night Train. I ended up going with 8.5 inch pullback risers and they were perfect for what I needed them for (not having to reach so much while riding).
The install was easy. Installed new bushings as well and it took at most an hour. I didn't have to relocated or extend any wires/cables so it was pretty simple.
My stock risers were 6 inches so this added another 2.5 inches and really brought the bars back.
Good job, I'm sure your bike is a lot more comfortable now. I'm running 8" Tucker-Rockies along with poly bushings myself on my NT. Big difference in comfort.
I thought the 6" were a little to much of a reach too so I tried 6.5" pullbacks and they were a little better but not enough. So I got 9.5" pullbacks and they made a huge difference (I also install poly bushings) and the best part way all the stock wires and cables were long enough. Probably one if my best and cheapest upgrades.

Man if I'd have known 9.5s would fit I would've gotten them. Originally I wanted 12 inchers but didn't want to deal with lengthening cables. Those you have look good.

Oh, and cheap is right. I only paid 65 bucks for these risers and maybe 8 bucks for the poly bushings. Definitely a great upgrade for little money.
