Default 07 riser alternatives

I'm wanting to change the factory riser on my 07 XL1200C, anybody know any good risers that will work? Needing something to hold the factory speedo.

it can be done but you have to change a lot of things. you will need to get a speedo braket off an xl and then you can get just about any risers you want

I switched to the low speedo bracket a while ago for the same reason. I made a thread about it: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/sport...nd-photos.html

I just did mine on my 09 custom, just bought all the parts for an 09 nightster, you'll also have to swap the harness for indicator lights, i got all the parts needed from the deal for about $250, ive also seen the parts selling used on ebay.
