Handlebar risers for 2016 vaquero

Does anyone know if someone makes 3' or 3 1/2 risers for 2015 Vaquero that will fit the stock 1.25" bars. Risers that sweep back about 1.5" to avoid the fairing when turning. Please help. Mac

Tried some and yes, they add rise but you have to lay down the bars so they don't hit the fairing. Very odd trying to ride it like that
I'll post before and after pics

I like Chuckster's risers... 1 3/4" rise and 1 1/4" set back. Similar to what you're looking for when you add the height of the OEM risers, and also very cost-effective.

I have used these on several Voyagers and really like them.

Pics of Chucksters Risers

Here are a couple pictures of the Chuckster Risers on my 2014 Voyager. They do just touch on full lock but not enough to do more than flex the fairing.

Sorry - You didn't mention the brand, so without checking your pictures very closely I assumed yours were the previously mentioned Scootworks.

I've not noticed my Chucksters risers needing the bars angled back quite so sharply as yours, but I've removed the pins that position the controls, and also drilled and loctited screws in each side of the steering stop. I might not have quite the same steering lock, but at least I can have my bars up a little straighter?

I adjusted them to not hit the fairing lock to lock. Didn't want to change the bike or reduce the turning radius.
