I inch riser
#1

I just added some 1 inch risers and it made a great improvement.
Thanks to ca200 for a good deal on pair he didn't need.
The extra inch up and a slight tilt back on the bars takes some weight off my hands and shoulders and makes the ride more pleasant.

Did you have to change the stock cables or were they long enough?

They had plenty of room
Can easily turn bars full lock side to side

Mscb1100: what is your model? I plan to raise my RS handle bar a bit up but wonder if the stock cables are enough.

I used these Genmars on my 2014 STD and they worked fine.

The relieved the pressure on my hands, much more comfortable.

Scooter, did you have to make any modifications regarding moving brake/clutch or throttle lines.
Do you still have full lock to lock turning with these.
If so I will order a pair today as mine just raised it a inch,
I clicked on the link and they look like they are up and back 1 inch
thnks

No mods for me. The cables and brake/clutch hoses are just long enough. I thought at first that the brake hose was too short, but it's not under any tension, just maximum reach. Any more rise or setback and it would not have worked. They are up 25mm and back 35mm, so 1 inch up and 1 3/8 inch back. Yes, full lock to lock travel, scares me every time the horn button hits my tank bag.
