Default Got A Riser Question?????

Got a riser question for anyone that can help me. I currently have a 05 1200C, I would like to change the riser to the one that the 03' came with. Is there any modification that I would have to do or would the riser just bolt right on? Any information would help.

Thanks Memo

This was just asked recently but I don't know if the guy followed through with it. Yes, you should have no problem other than some slight trimming to get your stock speedo to fit in the 03's housing properly...if you use the 05's housing your speedo will be almost horizontal.
