Risers; kinda, the lower bolts are just a tich short, (not enough room for the little hairpin safety) a bit of locktite prolly enough but I got all fancy with some coupling nuts on the lathe for a bomber set up. I think any year 250-500-750 mebbie 920-1100? that uses 7/8 bars are the same. You can use partzilla to do an interchange check. (a very useful tool to learn)I like the risers, are they direct bolt on? I see some on E Bay for $18-$40 or so. Any year that doesn;t fit? V Star mirrors? Do the work well? What I mean is do you get a rear view or an arm view?
If that's a direct fit, it's a whole lot cheaper than the Biltwell version.This Yamaha 42X-23442-00-38 HOLDER, HANDLE LOWER fits the following models and components:

Your Victory seems like such a great bike, you absolutely nailed the sound capture with that microphone set up
I threw it up on the big screen with the sound system. It looks good, sounds great!
I happened to notice either a deer or an antelope ( do you have those there? ) running away from you in the first video.
Great ride down Main St, 2M. It's longer than I thought and some big truck traffic as well.
Wonderful ride, thanks.Fredericksburg gets all gussied-up this time of year, Christmas decorations and lighting.
How 'bout a slow night ride thru town...?
...my driveway is 45 miles down the road.
Shweet road!Hey, Jack!
Let's show the folks just how twisty your road is.

I revved the engine at 5K RPM and started climbing up. At 5500 RPM something awesome happened; Buzzy came alive unlike he has since I've been riding him. I felt a solid surge in power and as I hit 6K RPM, he was pulling really well and it felt great.
