I changed the handlebar risers to raise them and pull them back a few inches. I don't think I'll ever revert back to the originals. If anybody wants
a stock set, you are welcome to them (speak now before I forget where I put them!).

I think I used the same or very similar riser as Fred? These are the links to our previous discussions.

Was a busy weekend, sorry the response was slow. With the recent change in postal rates, my calculations are not accurate. But the source zipcode is 49098.
I have to find the little box I put these in somewhere in my workshop to weigh them. But my guess is $6 to $10 via USPS.

Hey there,I had the same risers.I liked the feel and fit but I didn't like the extra movement being in the rubber bushing.Do ya think its safe and did you
get use to it.I took mine off but maybe should have left them on a bit longer

When I first got on, I over-steered a bit due to the handlebar height change. But I got use to that very quickly and like the riding position much better with the extended height of these risers. - Rich |
