Just had this riser on my bike. It's made from Taiwan, the finishing is pretty good. 2cm higher only as the throttle cable stretches a bit, could go higher if re-routing the cable.



First impression after a short riding was much more comfortable compared to stock setting. Worth a upgrade. Here is link on ebay in case someone would need it.

Not being judgemental, but s'funny our different preferences between the continents, for handlebar height and body lean.

US bars seem universally upright, whereas European bars are flatter and the ride position leans forward more. You seem not to like this position at all in the US?

I don't know if it is the type/style of riding, tradition, type of roads you ride or what?

Here in the UK, we can always tell a US import 'bike (normally older, iconic 'bikes like CB750/500/400, Suzuki GT750, Kawasaki Z1 900, etc.) by the height of the handlebars! Smile
