I used some Silglide spray lube and got under it with a long small pick to stretch it (making sure not to damage the line) and move it down a bit.

Thanks I assumed it had to but wanted to verify

Thank you rockster5 for your post. I just installed the same riser barbacks and rotated the bars 5° to 7° back on my 2014 CB100. Had to reroute the brake line but was a nice fit and it places the bars perfectly for a comfortable ride. Ordered highway pegs to mount on the lower frame tube. Corbin seat to go and longer periods on the bike will be more enjoyable.

thanks for all the info, 6' tall and more comfortable with a$$ farther back in the seat. I was wondering about fitment and availability, and here you guys have done all the research.

Your risers look very good... are the CB's handlebar, bar type or tube type?

Thanks...

Quietguy, I installed the GenMar risers on my CB too after seeing Veech's suggestion in this post. I agree that they look good and put the bars at a perfect height. The stock CB bars are the hollow tube type, one inch in diameter.

RE: HANDLE BAR RISERS - quietguy_imp - 01-21-2016

Thank you, Ron...

Oh, just noticed - the bar diameter is 1 inch? I thought it was 7/8"?

RE: HANDLE BAR RISERS - Ron in MO_imp - 01-21-2016

Oops! Your right. The bars are 7/8" diameter. It's the risers that add 1" in height. Sorry!

RE: HANDLE BAR RISERS - quietguy_imp - 01-21-2016

Thank you again, Ron.

I've had the 1" GenMar risers on my 2014 since last March. This is one of the first mods I did, based on the success I had with risers on my Goldwing. Just recently found out GenMar makes an offset riser which allows the handlebars to be raised 1" and mounted 1.25" back toward the driver. Reading posts about the front brake line being too short for the move, I looked at mine a couple days ago and found that my brake line was routed outside the wire loom which holds the throttle cables intact behind the headlight bracket. I loosened my bracket on the right hand side enough to move the brake line into the wire loom which effectively moved the brake line closer to the handlebars and I do believe the new risers will work. At least they did for Bokobob's 2014 Standard. IF the USPS can move mail tomorrow, I just might get my new risers delivered and installed. Experiencing some serious road conditions here in NC.

Personally, I never even thought about an item ike this because a need never became apparent to me. I'll have to investigate the next time I ride. I see that the risers do the up and back. Is that only for those of you that are long in the limb department? Probably a 31-35" inseam. Now if there is a way to lower the seat 1"-2" for a 30" inseam, that I would use - LOL.
