Handlebar Risers
#1

After yesterdays ride where I did about 35mls in one go, when I got home my shoulders and wrists were quite painful, my question is what size are our handlebars because I think I'm going to try some risers.
Think I need some which face back slightly.
Sorry if this has been asked before...Regards Mick.

I went with the Rox (off of Amazon but others carry them too) for the Griso, it was a huge help. I may go the same route with the CB. Unsure at the moment (they showed up in a catalog I recently got which is making me think). For the Griso, lowering the pegs and getting bar raisers made the bike ridable for me. Now the seat needs fixin'.

I used the 7/8" risers from SW Motech on my Triumph Tiger 1050. These raised the bars up and back about 1" and looked "stock".

I prefer to change out the handlebar instead of adding a riser. Has anyone found a handlebar with about an inch or two of rise over stock bars?

Samurider.com might have something. Or shoot Mr. T an email.

I admit I didn't look though.

No issues with cables, line and wires with the 1" risers?

No issues with the cable lengths with a 1" riser. I tried a 1" up and 3/4 back riser and the cables were a little too tight for my liking. You would have to do a little rerouting of the cables. Now I just use just the 1" up. Here is a picture of the GenMar 1"up and 3/4" back.[url=http://s1235.photobucket.com/user/a320skidooboy/media/CB1100/IMG_0660.jpg.html][Image: 8d3442f45e61fd296b0936e3393b92cc.jpg]
