So I am really wanting to pick up a set of bar risers

Mainly the ones in this link.
http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/16108.html

Does anyone have any experience with these? Do I need longer cables for the 2" risers? If I need longer cables where can I get them at-Obviously Buell doesnt sell any longer cables than what the Uly has.

Are they pretty sturdy and not allow the bars to slip?

Several folks have them, like them, and were able to install them utilizing the stock cables.

Good luck.

The Rox risers rock!

As Fatty said, you can keep all of your stock cables and brake lines but you'll have to reroute your throttle cables to prevent binding.

+2 for Rox Risers.

Reroute the throttle cables and remove the top brake line clamp at the cowling.

I have them and they are Rox Solid! 15k miles and they haven't budged First big improvement to the bike. Second is the Palmer brackets. Search the posts for installation recounts.

How about a photo on the rerouting of the throttle cables?
