Anyone knows if this ROX bar risers will fit the CB1100DLX/EX ?

I'm worried that the bottom nut/bolt protrusion on this risers will hit the triple clamp surface, and will not allow tightening.

Any advice appreciated.

Maybe the normal risers without the "Anti-Vibration" feature will suit the bike more...

Normal Rox Risers:

Nate,

Those risers look very interesting, but they are also very tall!
I would be worried that the stock control cables would not be long enough.

I have been considering something like these:

However, there does not seem to be much cable slack on my 2014. They already have a taller bar than the 2013 and I wonder if Honda simply used the existing cables and that they are now at or close to the extent of their limit.

Can anyone with any experience mounting risers on a 2013 or 2014 chime in? What was your stock cable situation?

Hi Gumby!

Thanks for your reply.

I think that the right sided cables(Brake hose, throttle cables, electrical harness) can be stretched out a little more by removing the black metal fasteners that secures them on the back of the triple clamps... We can re-route the cables slightly to give more free-play length?

Looks just possible... But need to actually have the risers to test it out...

Those risers you mentioned are only capable of giving an increase in bar height; they are not able to "pull back" the handlebar such that I do not need to bent forward so much and have a more comfortable, and relaxing ride...

I've only come across the Rox Risers which enables the bar to move up and back(nearer the rider). Have no had prior experience with other products.. I used to have one on my CB250 Nighthawk... Was great!

Nate,

To start with, I'm going to try the Free Solution...rotate the bars toward me slightly and rotate the controls on the bars an equivalent amount the opposite direction.

When doing so, I'll check on the cable slack situation (or lack thereof). If rotating doesn't help much, I'll order risers at a size comparable to the amount of cable slack. SW-Motech has risers as low as 20mm and several higher increments.

Twisted Throttle has a wide selection of the SW Motech risers and there are ones that both raise and pull back the bar.

I've had these on a Triumph Tiger and a Suzuki V-strom with no cable reach problems.

Gumby.. Switches are pinned so you wont be able to move them far without drilling new holes or grinding off locator pins

Thanks for the replies!

I'll see if the ROX risers are available locally for a no obligation try out...

Will inform you guys of the cable length/brake hose issue if any arises...

Gumby.. Switches are pinned so you wont be able to move them far without drilling new holes or grinding off locator pins I broke of by mistake the locating pin on a switch of my CB1000 and that can be a pain as the switch is now a little loose on the bar.
Ordered new switch incase.

I have the GenMar 1" risers on my 14 Deluxe with no issues.

I was just wondering if the stock risers/yokes can be slid back any on the triple tree top plate.

My 2009 CBF1000 had two-position risers and I think the triple tree top plate was slotted for some adjust-ability of the bars fore or aft.
