Am considering purchasing the 2" pull back bars for my 2012 XC. Is there risers avalable that will set the bars back? How invalved is changing out the bars, is this a diy or dealer install?

I was thinking the same thing.

I will change my own......

It seems the reach to the bars that is causing me neck pain..

I was watching a a youtube vid of a girl changing the bars on her CC to bars that are 2" longer..
I believe you will need a longer front brake line..

My wife put the pullbacks on her 2010 Cross Roads and loves them. We did have to buy a new brake line because the stock one was not long enough. If I remember correctly the service tech told me that they extended the line so the newer bikes have enough slack to account for the pullbacks.

Here is a photo of my Pull backs from Santa Rosa Vee Twin.
Like the way they look and feel. Ride 120 mile round trip every day. Currently have 35,600 miles.They work well.
Yes, had to remove front fairing and and kept original cables and lines.
Well worth the effort!
