Default Risers on 1200L
Moved up from my 03 883 Hugger to an 06 1200 Low and for the most part am very happy. Only thing is the reach for the handlebars is a little longer now and I'm getting a little pinch in my shoulder blades after long runs. I was considering bigger risers to compensate. I think a little movement up and back would make a big difference. Anyone know how big you can go before you get into re-wiring/cable isssues? Any other suggestions would be most welcome as well. Thanks

I don't know so I can't help. But, if you get a set-up that you like and want to sell your stock risers then send me an email.
