I plan to swap out the OEM risers on my 07SM for a set of 4" risers with 1" to 1.5" pullback. H-D risers are a possibility. I prefer not to drill the top tree.
Can anyone recommend a source & specific riser adapter that will work with Harley pattern risers and the SM tree?
Anyone know what size & pitch the 07SM OEM riser studs are?

10mm 1.25 if I remember right and the HD should be 1/2" 13 kinda fuzzy but I think those were the threads. I am sure on the 10mm for the stock dia. The rest I am hazy on.

Yes, HD definitely uses 1/2" - 13; if you're sure on the 10mm for the OEM Triumph riser, that's what I want to know.

Yes, I am 100% sure on the 10mm and about 90% on the pitch being 1.25.

Super, thanks. after a bit of research it looks like the Kawi 800/1500 Vulcan-Nomad series also uses 10mm riser bolts...

For reference, the OEM riser mount bolts are M10 x 1.25 TP.
Also for reference, Lightning Performance Products LPRBK-KH815 Harley to Kawasaki riser adapters have M10 x 1.5 TP studs on the tree-side.

I remembered the thread vaguely because I machined my adapters out of stainless. The bolts in the riser caps are stainless too to avoid rust.
