Handlebar Riser Insert mod? - Road King
This area of the bike has always bothered me on my Road King.
Has anyone found a good replacement insert for this plastic piece?
If not, I might machine an aluminum insert and have it engraved/etched with Road King like the 2014s
Looking for any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks!

Mine's an '05 RKC and mine looks like this one. Not sure why it wouldn't fit yours. I dig the smooth look too.

Wow, that looks much, much better. Wonder if it would fit a 2013

Replace it if you want but if you do, you have to take the nacelle apart to adjust the bars...that's what it's there for.
