I've got $75 that is absolutely burning a hole in my pocket. :devil:

Anyway, my quad has a high bend of Renthal bars on a stock stem right now. It isn't bad, but they are a little bit low when I stand up and ride. I find myself in an awkward position.

I have ridden my friend's quad with +2 risers and a low CR bend and it is much more comfortable to ride. With that said, I have found a couple sets of fatbars with risers for pretty cheap.

Here is the question, will I need to get extended brake lines, throttle cable, clutch cable, etc if I got risers or a stem? If so, it is probably a bit too much for this month and I'll need to find somewhere else to spend the extra cash... :scary:

You should be able to put a risers or +1 or +2 stem on your quad no problem. not so much a problem going up, only when your extending out the a arms you need to get +1 or +2 or even +3 brake line. if you do one thing your eventually going to do the other it all takes time and alot of it lol.

I already have extended arms. They stock lines barely fit. I need SS ones, but I'm trying to hold out a month or two.
