I’m sure the ladies will agree, but what a difference two inches makes…
I liked the sitting position on the V1000, but after an hour or two in the saddle my back would feel a bit uncomfortable so I thought I would take a punt on some risers - but the question was whether to just go upwards or go up and back. In the end I went up and back and got some risers from fleabay for about 25 fuel chits. I fitted them this morning and I had no snags with the cabling. Quick and easy.
What a difference.
The strom is brilliant now. Even better than it was. It’s such a better position and because the bars are slightly closer, you feel as though you have even more control. And what’s better, making tight turns - like doing a u-turn - is a doddle now.
I’m kind of sceptical about things that bolt on, and I know that most of you have already fitted risers so I suppose I’m a bit slow to the party, but now I see why.
What a difference the risers make. I was grinning from ear to ear within 100 yds from home, as it feels so good.
