Do i have enough cables on the bike to add a set of 4 inch risers

[ds06nomad]

Yes. Check Gadget's page on risers and rerouting wires.

I put 4" on top of my stock risers...so that's probably like 5 1/2". It's tight but the wires and cables do fit.

Are the phat II fairly easy to install

[legend82]

Yes they are, it only took me about an hour with a friend helping me hold the bars.

Sorry Basco, I posted an old picture this is how they look.

[dogdoc]

i installed them all alone (because nobody likes me) in 1 hr no problem.

Put my Phat II's on today solo in about 45 mins. including a little test run. Easiest mod short of my side covers. Order em up towering..scootworks had plenty when I was there today.

Here they are and a few pics. Sorry for the size, they just didn't show up very good any smaller.

Taking off the old ones (1 off/1 on)..towel over the tank (I drop wrenches :-/ :-/ :-/)



New ones on from each side.

Todd -- That looks great. How tight are the cables? Are they really close to the speedo cowl?

I am not sure if I understand the part about "close to the speedo cowl"

The cables could probably stand about another 1/2" inch more only...which makes them fit and have some slack anyway you turn your bars...which very rarely get turned all the way right anyway in my experience.

The cables are nowhere close to the speedo cowl....no different than before really...took a couple pics that I hope will let you see what you are looking for.

Here you can see the cables are still running along the bars and to the outside of the risers.



Here you can see the left side of the triple tree where the cables come from under the tank.



If that does not answer your question...let me know.

I meant the risers -- are they close to hitting the cowl when you turn the bars to the lock? It looks like yours are over the cowl with plenty of clearance in your new pic.

I read another post and someone mentioned the riser hit the cowl and put a dent in it.

I wanted to get a set of those but was worried about the cables and the clearance.

Thanks

Forgot to ask -- how do they feel?
