I read somewhere on here about using 19mm deep-well sockets as risers ... install with the stock buck-horn bar clamps, but you'll need longer stem bolts ... maybe someone who's done this mod can elaborate?

Hey clueless, do you know which Harley bars they are?

Also, what are the 2 clamps that are mounted half way up the rise on the bars?

I'm not clueless (though some may argue) And boy if there was ever a pitch for a punch line...

But seriously, I'd like to know exactly what HD bars those are too; because they are nice, as are the socket/risers.

The clamps be for a windshield I'd guess.

BTW, I have the same risers as Rob, but my bars have a slight rise; are 32" wide, and only a little angle back and down. As seen by the visable knurling, they are also originally made-for-HD bars.



That setup fits me well. I can put my elbows at normal rest, and my hands will fall right onto the grips without 'reaching' (just as it should be IMO).

I perfer the bars that came on my bike those are the perfect fit for someone short as me.
