the bent risers make a big difference, what rise are those ones? I've been running 6" risers similar to those for close to 12 months, I like them

RIVCO has different stuff from Joker. Both offer great stuff for our bikes and good quality too!

Love my Rivco risers. They look great AND made a huge difference in riding comfort.

Has anyone had problems with the RIVCO risers and the throttle cable? I just put them on and there wasnt enough play in the cable.

Move the throttle cables to the right side of the frame.
Worked for me.

Ill give that a try. Oh, and what did you do with the front turn signals? I cant fully turn the bar in either direction. I was thinking of just taking them off or rigging them to sit on top.

I bought the turn signal relocation kit from Fasteddy.
They clamp around the top fork shrouds.

Hi Frank. How do you handle the wiring needed to relocate the signals? Is there a patch cable to extend the wiring or just solder things up to an extension and put the wiring in a conduit?
I want to put lowers on the bike, and was also wondering if that would be possible with the relocated signal lights.
Do you have an America or Speedmaster?
Thx,

I have a Speedmaster with America bars and Speedmaster risers.
The relocation brackets come with all the wiring and just plugs in. I had to cable tie (zip tie)the wiring in place.
If you get the wiring in the right place it is really not noticable.
