Is there such a thing available for a Valkyrie anymore?
Trying to locate some that would fit new or used.

Stock is 3 1/8".
Many aftermarket risers are 4". One inch riser spacers give you about 4" or maybe a hair over.
The Deuce (Harley knockoffs) are 5" and may require longer throttle cables (or interstate handlebar throttle housings, which come out the bottom and not the front) and brake lines.
It's right at 4" where no hoses or wires (length) alteration have to be worried about (especially turning the bars lock to lock). IE plug and play.

Baron Custom Accessories Kickback Riser BA-7410-U, 4" height, 1 1/2" pullback. Mine are new never installed. They will work on a Valkyrie by rerouting some of the wiring and possibly the cables. I decided not to install them, did not want to move things around.

I was able to find taller bars as changing bars is also less hassle. The pullback on stock Valkyrie bars was too much thus putting my hands in a not comfortable position for low speed handling. The new bar is 2.5 higher, 34.5 wide and 4.5 less pullback. Unfortunately it's been out of stock for most the year. This bar gave more slack in the cables thus no rerouting of cables etc.

They do have a 10" variant that is a .5" less width but otherwise the same dimensions of the "medium street".

Stock valk dimensions: 9" center width, 33"W, 6"T, and 14" of pullback.

I like the stock height of the pullbacks, but would like move the bars maybe an inch and a half rearward.
Any ideas?

Most all common 4" risers give you some extra pullback (and require no wire, hose or cable rerouting, though some may be better if you turn the wire clips on the back of the handlebars around 180*).
You may not feel you need the small rise, but you'll like it fine (most do, and any height riders).
Stock rise is 3 1/8", so 4" is less than an inch.

I noticed by merely adjusting the angle of the bars made a significant difference in alleviating wrist issues.
