Hello everybody!
I am looking to change my pullback risers to straight ones, but I dont want to change the speedo setup. Is there risers available that my top clamp would bolt up to? I know there are alot of aftermarket risers, but I was hoping there was something out there like the stock one, but straight, that would also hide the wires since they are inside the current riser. My bike is a 2004 xl1200c Sporty. Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks!

Good luck with your search. I'm personally getting ready to purchase some pre-wired T-bars and move my speedo to the top triple tree ala Capttawes (do a forum search).
I already purchased the parts for the speedo relocation and I hope to pick up the bars in a week or two. Good luck in your quest.
If only someone would design a kit for us XLC riders who want to explore different bar and riser combinations....

Look for the cyclonecutting riser mod on xlforums. It shows how to cut down your custom riser so it is straight but maintains the stock speedo and wire hider cover.

Thanks! Thats pretty cool having the pre wired bars. Makes it a little easier to deal with those wires. I have the mini ape bars on mine and there just to close, plus I think it would look better if they lined up with the forks and not pulled back like they are now.
