    I want to bring my Handlebar up about an inch and back about the same, I see various risers for sale but they all say Standard, Tourer. What do I get that won't interfere with the fairing.
  Thanks

Any riser that will work on Std/Tourer will also work with IS (even with the fairing and bigger tank).

An inch up and back isn't that much. 

A good buy in Valk risers are the in-house HDL risers below.  OE riser height is around 3 1/8", most of the garden variety aftermarkets are 4", these are 4 1/4".  As they sit on an angled triple tree, up always means back too.

More guys probably use these than any other; little more movement, over twice the price (and the bling factor is mostly hidden with the IS fairing).  I have them and they are a great improvement.

What kind of rise and pullback do these have?

Also, check out the Old Tech Archives....type in Duece Risers and look for a message with the subject "Duece Risers Accordin to Mase" (somewhere in the first 10 or so messages) for a great picture and some measurements.....

Got'em on my Tourer and luv'em..... cooldude
