Risers - anyone using these?

[yellowstorm]

Has anyone used these risers with any success?

I take it the they would need a fairing mod and xtended brake/clutch lines.

But seems ideal the no yoke drilling involved.

I had them on my old cbr600 and they did the job just fine

Ask Tony Wilde as I have a feeling they won't work on the Firestorm

You'd also have to make sure with the risers sittin on the top yoke, that the bars would clear the tops of the forks
Would poss be ok,but best get sizes 1st

just seen this thread.they fit on the forks ok,but when you go to fit the handlebars they clang into the fork tops/adjusters

so thats why i drilled holes and fitted bolt on risers in the end...to my previous vtr.hope this helps.

Thanks for that, I think I'll give them a miss and go for drilling the yoke.

i found the ideal spacing was 55mm between the risers ok?thats measuring the inside face while mounted.

Not to put a penny in the works but im pretty sure these were the same ones that were fitted to my storm? They fitted fine without any mods?

There are a couple on ebay too.....

I have considered adding these to my bike, commuting is a bit harsh on the wrists - 'tank thigh huggin' has helped a lot tho.

I have the same as shown by bvghead.
These are made by GB MOTO.
Nice product by the way
They are far better than nowt but aren't gonna get you into a sit-up-and-beg riding position for sure.
