Talking Top triple clamp/risers

Hi all, I have a 2011 XL883L Super Low and am wanting to fit risers and bars. The top triple clamp & risers are a one piece unit (integrated). Does anyone know of a way to attach risers to this set up or do I need to change the top clamp? Would an earlier model clamp fit the 2011? Thanks in advance.

Harley list several riser kits. Worth talking to your local dealer about fitting them to your bike, but they only exclude Springer models.

If stock risers are intergrated into top triple tree, then you most certainly have to change triple trees, in order to fit new risers...you can still fit any 1" thick handlebars on stock risers...
