I have a similar set up, to get the indicators and gauge up there I had to buy 8.5" pull back risers, drag bars, and gauge mount/top clamp off a 1200L. It achieved the same look. Those particular bars are one piece with the risers. They're meant for someone relocating the speedo or for dynas

I have the stock straight custom risers with drag bars. The risers are about 5 1/2" high. I'd like to keep the top clamp with the indicator lights.

That's very nice! I was actually thinking of buying 8.5" risers and install the stock top clamp on it, and relocate the speedo on the side with the Autometer bracket.

Would you have more pictures of your bike? Looks really nice!

Thanks man, I don't have many other pictures and I'm pretty positive I don't have any others since I did the bars and risers
