How To: Choose the best Risers for your Harley-Davidson!

Welcome back to another How To by Thrashin Supply. Today we are going to talk about choosing the best Riser setup for your Harley-Davidson. One of our most asked questions is, What size Risers/Bars should I get?? We dive into this topic and show you that there are many options that will not only get your bike looking good but feeling comfortable!

Check out some of our Riser and Handlebars here at

Higher the riser higher the horsepower that’s just facts!

I just wanna add... Dont be afraid to go lower and Adjust things! Tall doesnt work for everyone.
I used the harley 4inch pullback fat riser which is barely taller than the stock riser but has a nice kickback. It keeps the bars low, and I lowered the bars down angle wise as well, and then turned the control modules down so the levers would be much further down. So much more comfortable, and so much more control.
I would love more riser options that are kick backs instead of raised up.

Great video guys. Love the measurements, along with visually showing the bars on the bikes. Perfect!

I just checked out this morning, $811. Got 8” hole shots, aggressive mid bends, bushings, grips, throttle tube, end cap and bunch of other random gear that I wanted. I’m about to dial in my bar setup bro! I’m stoked 🤙🏽

You also went a slight slight bend in your elbow like lances dyna set up if I’m correct if your to straight out your hands will go numb after 100 miles I run 13.5
Pull back at 5, 10 and there

Well said I learned a lot. It’s cool to know that you can dial in your comfort with so much product to choose from. All sizes and shapes. I have straight but was looking at the pullbacks without losing my height.

Keep in mind, also, that your SEAT height will also affect your selection of your bar and riser height too. Also the angle of your forks. Some forks are 28 degrees, some 30, some 32 degrees, will affect the amount of pull back you might want.

8 inch straights with the high bend bars. 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

I have called more than a handful of bike shops regarding this type of upgrade. I received more information from arching your video, than calling all of these shops.
Thank you. Be safe.

Super informative, Can't wait to get my 9.5" riser order. Love my ThrashinSupply stuff, keep the videos coming guys

[wrxdude]

Aww thanks for the info. I gotta make some thrashin upgrades to my bike 😎

[kathyhebert]

I ordered the 6.5 risers with 1.5 pullback. And, the Mid-bend handlebar with a 5” pullback. I’m 5’5” -30” inseam. Also using the Saddleman step up seat. Hope

You did not cover the extensions you mentioned. I know you have ½" and 1" but I'd like to see what is involved in adding them. And are you ever going to offer a 2" since what would allow someone like me to buy the gauge relocation and tree setup without needing to buy new risers and still get the same height.

[eddiebones]

I'm 5'8 and my 05 Deluxe (stock bars since new) feels a little cramped (distance to bars) and pushing them forward made things more comfortable. I'm considering a straight 6" riser with mid height bar as I don't want full apes and a straight bar/tall riser would look odd on this bike IMO. Hoping I can get away with same cables, brakeline and wiring.

[Ladyvieves]

I’m in the process of changing my risers and handlebars “again”. This was super helpful. Thank you🖤⚡️🤘

[mattfxlrs]

Great video guys super appreciated 👏

Have you boyz ever thought about making your own brand of t bars,
Maybe in something like a 1 and a half inch or 3 quarters thick.
Like burleigh bars Australia ?

[tapoutism]

Awesome video guys definitely informational stay rippen

Just bought my 2022 Low Rider S and was super confused on how to go about getting my riding position just right. I'm on the shorter side and I find myself leaning forward to get to the bars. This is putting some serious strain on my shoulders and lower back. I had someone measure out where a comfortable riding position was and they recommended close to a 10" rise with around 3" pull back. With that in mind I'm thinking of getting your 9.5" with pull back. So much to learn with my first bike!

[mikedarrow]

Just ordered 9.5" pull back for my LRST thats due in NZ any day now . Great videos as always .

Got to swing a leg over a Fat Bob 114 with your 8in pullbacks and bars at the dealership I work at. Had your bags too. Exactly how I would do it!
