Handlebar Raisers..

Hi All,

does anybody know how tall can the TEN stock handlebars be raised, without any cable mod..or extention..?

The handlebars raisers I have seen range from 20 mm to 30 mm...

Thanks.

Jaume fro Barelona.

Hello,

I have 30mm risers on my Tenere bars, you could probably get a little higher with some adjustments.

Others on here have changed to Renthal hogh bars which give a 50mm height increase I believe.


Nick.

I've got 30mm risers without any adjustments, no sweat. It's a big difference using them, recommended!

P.s.: nothing wrong with your eyes, just a blurry pic!

I got mine from www.mdi-online.nl , but you can also get them from www.kedo.com . Both sites also in English, so that won't be a problem. If in stock, both companies deliver within a week, both recommended.

Renthal Dakar high bars are the cable limits. On full right lock the throttle cable gets tight.

Question Outlaw Handlebar Riser Kit

Has anyone seen or tried these before? http://www.gnarlyparts.ca/product_in...ducts_id=12106

They seem like a good idea to see what height suits the individual best however, I'm not sure how they'd work in the real world. Would there be much movement/fretting between the spacers if you used the maximum height/number of spacers. Also would they be legal in the uk for road use?

Any thoughts??

Before you go spending money on risers I suggest that you try tilting your bars forward a touch you will be supprised at the difference it will make
