Common questions
Will these risers fit my bike with aftermarket handlebars?
Yes, these risers will fit if your aftermarket handlebars have a 1-inch or 1-1/8-inch diameter and maintain the standard 3.5-inch center-to-center riser spacing. Always verify your bar diameter and spacing before ordering.
Can I use these risers with a fairing?
Compatibility with fairings depends on your specific V-twin model and fairing design. Some models may require additional parts to ensure adequate clearance. We recommend checking fitment with your setup.
Do these risers require any special tools for installation?
Standard hand tools are generally sufficient for installation, but always ensure you have the appropriate torque wrench for tightening bolts to manufacturer specifications. Professional installation is recommended if you are unsure.
