Can't help with your riser question, rooster1, as I have Chuckster riser extensions. But just wanted to say I like the paint job on you Nad (Nomad, that is).

Markus Maximus, how much of a difference did the chucksters make? how much improvement up and back? and did you have any problems with cables/shield/etc

Hey Rooster.... I'm sure there will be a lot of posts, but I've got the Phat II's and love them. I'm 6'1" and 35" sleve.... I prefered to have the bars not only up, but back also. I used the center mounts for the risers and have no problems with cables or clearence. Love them and very glad I got them.....works great with the grasshopper back rest.... makes all day riding a breeze!!!

I'm 6'1" with 36-37 sleeves and have the aeromachs and love the slouching position it gives as well as the looks of them.

Phatt II vs Aeromach Risers

I put on the Phat II riser yesterday with alittle help from the wife. Went on very easy with no problems and simple directions. I used the offset holes and the new bolts everything clears just fine. Front brake line is alittle tight. i'm 5'9 with avg. length arms. Only rode around 75 miles and they are great very comfortable. Also, very good finish

If you can get them, you won't be disappointed. Had a set on my boulevard before the Nomad.

Phatt II vs Aeromach Risers

Hi all, I'm new to this forum, and this is my first post. I pondered this question a long time and have ended up going with the Phatt II risers. The main reason? I contacted Aeromach last weekend to place an order, and the risers are on back order 10-12 weeks. This was after already waiting 3 months for Aeromach to restock the e-bay store of smith brothers oneonta.

Hopefully, risers will go on the bike next weekend, then I'll post again.

Good luck to you!
