Bar Risers

[NTBooth]

Looking for a pair of risers - approx 20-30mm rise, just straight up not up and back.
Silver or black, colour not important.

Thanks

M&P have them for £10.
26mm - fitted them to my old Wee.

Thanks Mr Diver!

ill have a look now.
if your able to pop a link on that would be wonderful!

26mm, did you need to change cables or anything like that?

Thanks

Cables will be fine. You may need to persuade a bit more of the loom out from under the tank and up by the headstock, but nothing major.

Think I found them

With the bottom of the risers being flat do they not sit funny in the original fittings because they're not round?

Nothing more than a 5 minute job to fit I presume? as for persuading the loom I presume there is enough play in the lines to do this comfortably?

I put 26mm on mine with no problems.

I did have to slide the brake line slightly further up the clamp on the underside of the headstock but that was just loosen, slide and retighten.

Thanks Martin, I remember us having a brief discussion about this a few months back where you sent me some pictures. looked very simple, just rotating a bracket 90 degrees, Good to know!

Infact...were those risers not the ones that Mr Diver is referring to? I think they came off his old strom and you pipped me to the post buying them!?  haha

[MartinW]

No, they weren't Diver's - I got mine from Jeff999

[NTBooth]

ahhh, righto!

well, as I said previously:
With the bottom of the risers being flat do they not sit funny in the original fittings because they're not round?

Is this an issue at all or just something I'm thinking of to stop my self parting with a tenner? (yes I really am that tight sometimes )

[mr_diver]

Mine went with the bike to the breakers.

I couldn't be arsed to remove them when they only cost £10

But the ones you found are the exact ones I bought. The flat bit actually created a small void.
I had Goodridge braided hoses that were a little on the short side compared to the stock lines but still fitted OK.

Thanks everyone for your replies!

you've all been a big help. Decided to order some as I really think I need them. I have a long history of back issues and the very slightly forward stance I am riding in because I am fairly tall and the height of the bars I think is making it uncomfortable on longer rides.

will see how I go on with them when they arrive.
