Got both of these sets off Ebay for less than $40 shipped.

I recommend www.debrix.com they're a Harley aftermarket shop, but with the right tools, you can make a lot of their things fit. I bought the 6" risers and 32" Drag bars. Only mod needed for these were the studs that mount the risers. Thanks to Ian, I was able to make a set, but you can buy them at a few places.

These look cool. Don´t know if they fit and for this topic they aren't longer than stock just better looking and cheap.

P.S. How do I know if some risers fit or not?

Looks like they will work except you will need adapter mounting studs or drill the triple tree since they use the 1/2" X 13 thread like HD.

I'm not going to start drilling anything. Wouldn't want to destroy my bike. And I just thought I could buy something nice practically for free...

you can and don't have to drill the tree if you get adapter studs. They make studs that are 1/2"x 13 on one end and 10mm on the other.

Just for photographic reference here. This is similar to what you need. I believe that the 10mm thread should go closer to the 1/2"x13 thread without having that spacer between. Otherwise I guess you could stack washers, but I'd suggest using some loctite.

Those look fine to me the part that doesn't have thread would be inside the top tree. They look like the seat I machines for myself and Wendy.
