Pullback risers

[el duque_imp]

I don't mind the bars the way they are. The position seems to work with the little fairing. But it would be a bit more comfortable if they were up and back a little. My only concern is I'll be more upright and maybe a bit more of a target for the wind.

Any suggestions?

I put 2 inch Roxx risers on mine with a taller K&H seat so I’m pretty upright and did not notice any increase in wind drag.

I used an older version of these on my '14 Standard that made a big difference.
The cables seemed to have just enough play without having to do anything.
The risers bring the bar up and back closer to you.

I didn't notice any difference with wind, but much more comfortable riding position for me.

$16 off Ebay did the same thing as the Roxx. the bottom part was a tad loose. final solution was wrapped once around the middle with safety wire to fill the gap and bolted down. solid as a rock now and you can't tell looking at it.

After another forum member suggested them, I bought a pair of GenMar risers. They raise the bars up 1" and back 1 3/8 inches. Unfortunately I will have to wait until May to try them.

all good suggestions that i will look into.

Can you link to that or similar item?

Thank you. They are definitely pullback kind, not just straight up risers?

Also, does anyone ever tried using a rubber gasket to decrease vibration? Touring bikes do that upgrade often.

 

[jimgl3_imp]

yes, they swivel any way you want them. I tried rubber for the slight mis-fit that I described and it worked ok. it did dampen vibration like you suggest, but I just couldn't get used to the lack of a really solid feel to the bars. that's why I finally went with the safety wire.

You guys are costing me money! The thought that I needed pull back risers never crossed my mind until after I read these posts and started thinking about it and checking it out. LOL I think they will help me, I ordered some SW-Motech this morning. Thanks. I think.

 

[el duque_imp]

Yeah $100 for this $200 for that.

Sorry!

Just a nit-pik-

Risers, well rise- and move back. They do not change the pull back which is the angle of the bars themselves towards the rider.

I'm fairly sure what a lot of you probably would want is indeed more pull pack which involves switching bars like I did.

Reference- Not so comfortable after few hours

I got the Motech risers installed today, they are great ! So thanks for the info posted here by everyone, I did have to play with a few cables and the brake line, but not much. A more comfy riding position for me. I also realized how badly my shift lever was adjusted, so after adjusting that and installing the pull back risers, a great bike is a little better. I do feel like a bone head for not adjusting that shifter a lot sooner.

Love my Rox Risers!

Increased comfort, more upright. no back fatigue. :biker:

 

[jimgl3_imp]

love my $16 ebay risers. LOL!

 

[el duque_imp]

still pondering which risers among other things (bags, sig relocate, tires, aux lights, etc. etc)

anybody have these? they are spendy but I kinda like the fact that they don't clamp into the existing risers and they match the color of the bike!

I'm leaning toward Rox risers.

Tell me about “safety” wire. I’ve got the same problem. Is there something I might have around the house that I could use?

Never mind,

Found some small wire and wrapped it a couple of times. Snugged it like I needed. Would have been nice if the risers came with a snubby Allen wrench. Cause it sure needed it.

Now my bike fits me again.

 

[jimgl3_imp]

snubby Allen wrench. yes!
