Hammer Risers and Foot Controls

I am looking for someone who makes handle bar risers for the Hammer, I
need around 4 to 6 inches taller. There seems to be a serious lack of
after market stuff. I am thinking about machining my own and powder
coating it the same color as the rest of the bike.

I am also looking to move my forward controls forward about 4 to 6
inches for more comfort. It seems like it would be easy to make some
plates, drill and tap holes for the old mounts, drill and tap holes
for the pegs, and controls bracket, extend the brake line, make the
shift rod 4 inches longer, have it chromed or powder coated to match
the tank, and presto. More comfort and style for my ride.

Have you considered using taller handlebars instead? Probably would be
much cheaper and easier to locate the bars you need than the risers
you're looking for.

Makes sense to me.

Haven't really looked close at the Hammer but have been told that the new
Hammer S does use the same bars as the Kingpin and there are risers
available for the Kingpin.

The '06 Hammer has a V shaped handle bar with built in risers. It's
all one piece. I think I am going to get some round stock, drill a
hole through two 6 inch pieces and change the studs to 6 inches
longer. I found a machinist that will make it for me, but I don't
think it will be too hard to do. If I make it out of aluminum
especially. I don't know if I can powder coat aluminum though, I'll
have to check on that. I don't want different handle bars as I think
the v shaped bar looks pretty cool. Don't know what they will look
like as Ape Hangers after raising them 6 inches though.

Of course, there's always this very expensive option:

Personally, J.C. Whitney is more within my budget. Too bad they don't
make parts specifically for Victories yet.

So you're going to make some spacers. A good friend of mine is a
combination machinist-and-motorcycle-mechanic. Seems to me he and I have
talked about this option before and he said it was a bad idea, but I'll
try to remember to ask ask him about it again and get back to you.

Interesting that you came up with the same figure I did. My '03 Touring
Cruiser would be very comfortable if the handlebars were either four
inches higher somehow OR, if they simply had about 15 degrees more
pullback. My plan is to try to carefully bend them back with a conduit
bender. My friend and I have done this to repair bent handlebars in the
past and if I mess up the existing bars it's no great loss since they're
totally uncomfortable at this point.

Doubtful that you'd want to try such a thing on your Hammer's bars.

In one of the studies, a wow gold group of bilingual US Hispanic women wow power leveling viewed advertisements that featured women in wow power leveling different scenarios.
