    cheap easy way to make bar risers

    ok heres a trick ive been doing for quiet some time and it has worked out well, its a cheap solution to raise your bars, however its not a duarastic lift. half of an inch i believe but its still a bar riser

    4 longer bolts and a spare set of top clamps are required

    step one remove bars and top clamp(s) i used a lonestar anti-vibe but this can also be done with the stock stem

    step two take a extra set of TOP bar clamps and flip them upside down and set them in the place of the old top clamp(s)


    like so

    step 3, dig up or buy 4 bolts that will meet the new required length. and re-install bars with the old top clamp

    Thats actually not a bad mod. My buddy gave me the advice on that. I had a spare set of clamps from a Blaster that I put on my wifes Raptor 350. Worked out great. I wasn't looking for appearance,but rather function.
