Anyone who has changed risers happen to know if there’s any reason a set of Harley risers wouldn’t fit?

Ok so the factory ones are joined for stability, but hey I’ve ridden harleys for god knows how many years with seperate risers with no dramas.

Lot of nice risers available for 1” Harley bars nice and cheap.
 
I used risers intended for HD on my bike and they worked out perfect.EB2BE275-3676-41CD-8B52-4B478601F71C.webp
 
I purchased these on eBay. I chose the short version since I have beach bars.

Are they shorter or higher than the OEM? Plug and Play or modification needed?
 
I needed shorter but they have various heights available. Just search eBay.

Ok, you need shorter because of your beach bar, that makes sense. I was thinking about the Drag Bar from Wunderlich, and in order to not to loose the current distance between the bar and my body, I should go for a taller one... Thanks

PD: the OEM riser never was released...

Yeah, that’s why had to find an alternative. I have the contrast cut RSD accessories so these matched up nicely.
There were a lot of variations on eBay and I can attest that the quality and finish is equal to anything I’ve bought from BMW.
