I just got a reply to an email I sent Brent about the pullback risers he carries. He said they will fit the Speedmaster, site lists "America only" but the cables are real tight. He sugggested creative routing might solve the problem. If not I'll need longer cables. I did a search but had no luck finding any info on were to order them. I think the front brake line will be OK. It's the clutch & throttle that I may need to replace. I'm thinking that the America Cables will be too long. Any ideas

I have around two inch bar backs on my 05 Speedmaster. The stock clutch cable had to come out of the plastic retainer on the frame behind the front fender, and the cable is now wire tied to the oil cooler hose. Not the prettiest way to do it. If you're up at Toymakers, I'm five miles away if you want a peek.

I'd like to bring the bars back another two inches

Maybe over the Winter...

Looks like the risers at Newspeedmaster bring the bars back about 2". Any more than that on the SM with the flat bars, and I think that the bars would hit the tank?
I'm making out my list of things to change this winter.
Oh wait winter may pass us by here in the northeast this year
First on the list is new Prg.412 shocks & fork springs. At 5'7" I need to bring the bars back some. from there the list goes on.
