Massive compression. Let's se what you get...

Apologies, jtopsio. Try this, http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=12717

Thanks, I've found a workaround to avoid setting up an imgur account.

Just installed [url=https://twistedthrottle.com/shop/ergonomics/handlebar-risers-barbacks/sw-motech-handlebar-riser-kit-to-fit-22mm-handlebars-for-many-aprilia-bmw-honda-kawasaki-ktm-suzuki-triumph-yamaha-models-25mm-rise-silver/]these on my '17 EX today. Super easy install.

They don't list the CB1100 under the fitment section, but these fit with no cable adjustment required.

Here are a couple of pics for those who are considering these as an option.





That extra inch sure makes a difference. #TWSS

Not sure I'd want that type of fitment....is that just empty space where the bottom of the riser meets the curve? Seems if that is not flush than an emergency stop would put much more pressure on the 4 bolts and that could be a lot of force for those to handle. I guess abs would mitigate that.

The fit on the bottom does leave empty space. I'd prefer not to have it that way as well, but wasn't able to find any better options. Right or wrong, I have some faith in the folks at SW-Motech in terms of product design so was willing to go with this based on that.

That empty space at the bottom is required.

If it wasn't there, what are you clamping? You need to make sure the flat faces do full contact, and all the bolt load goes into compressing the joint. If the round section was making contact before the flat face did, the bolt load wouldn't compress the flat face: it would bend it.

When you are clamping a handlebar, the design is opposite: you need to make sure that you are clamping the bar, so there must be a gap between the flat faces.
