Bar risers for DL1050 (2020 Model)
« on: October 26, 2020, 11:35:07 »
I've only gone and done it and bought a new DL1050.
I'm looking at doing a bit of tweaking of riding position and think that bar risers will help.
I'm not looking for much lift prob 3/4".
I think the bars are 28 mm dia.
Has anybody out there found anything that works nicely?
Loving the bike so far but 'running in' at the mo.
Cheers.

Hi I bought some risers for my 2015 DL650 and found that the cables did not have enough slack in them to allow me to fit them, I have not got round to buying new cables I am just putting up with it.

I had 20mm risers on my 2017 DL1000. No issues except for having to unclip the hose bracket for the clutch pipe. Any higher and you'll need to play around re-routing cables.

Thanks Oslin. Where did you get them? Are they 28mm Bars? I've found too many options!

Hi Numptynut, I think is was M&P I can not answer the bar size question as I have a DL650 and they might not be the same as the DL1050 ?
