handlebar riser..... any ideas???

[grassman]

i want to get risers without having to replace cables and wires. I think you can go 2" but id like to hear from someone who has used them.. if you have pics it would help too. what is the size of stock handlebars.... i think its 7/8?

7/8 bars, with Powermadd Rox 2" riser. cables were fine, i just had to move the throttle assembly in a hair on the Renthal bar (towards the middle). if you have stock bars, you won't even have to.

at 6'3" i am much more comfortable.

with 2" risers and the stock bars i'm almost possitive you will need new brake lines, throttle, and clutch lines. I put a 2x4 under my clamps which is really 1-1/2" and strapped it down. I have +2 or +3 longer break lines so those were fine. The throttle cable and clutch cable looked like a 1/4" more would deffinately max them out. 2" might be pushing it.
