HD risers Installed

radco · 02-22-2009, 03:28 PM

Today was WARM and hit 36 Deg... I had to see if the HD Risers would work.. YUP they do :) and The HD Tach will fit :) :).. I just have to cut the bolts alittle shorter that came with the tach...They are 4" Pull Back Custom Chrome w/custom chrome caps. These are the Model on Gadgets site.... The Risers were
35$ E bay, Caps 13$. Stud adapter 13$ = 61$,, IMO Better then 140$ for the Metric risers,,HEY I'm cheap,, Plus it s not as common :)..and Im not common just ask anyone who knows me they will tell you Im different LOL..... Had to move my Ram mount abit .. other then that a easy install.. 2 people would make it easier...Will torque to specs before I ride,, WHAT are the Torque specs for the Risers,, 25ft lbs??? Riser cap Bolts???? Thanks

Rich, those do look SHARP, and as you said, a little different than normal.

On the 1600, both the bottom riser bolts, and the cap bolts tighten to 25 ft lbs. Should be about the same on the 1500s.

Pretty sad when you say "Today was WARM and hit 36 Deg" ;)

Risers look great and the price is right.

"HEY I cheap"

Yeah you are, won't even use all the letters.

Radco is a bit like MacMac....he speaks his own dialect. A little translation is needed most times, but the idea comes through...

Rich, nice job on the risers...they look good and indeed...a breed apart!
