Pullback risers

[el duque]

I don't mind the bars the way they are. The position seems to work with the little fairing. But it would be a bit more comfortable if they were up and back a little. My only concern is I'll be more upright and maybe a bit more of a target for the wind.

Any suggestions?

I put 2 inch Roxx risers on mine with a taller K&H seat so I’m pretty upright and did not notice any increase in wind drag.

I used an older version of these on my '14 Standard that made a big difference.
The cables seemed to have just enough play without having to do anything.
The risers bring the bar up and back closer to you.

Mounting instructions gives a good look

I didn't notice any difference with wind, but much more comfortable riding position for me.

$16 off Ebay did the same thing as the Roxx. the bottom part was a tad loose. final solution was wrapped once around the middle with safety wire to fill the gap and bolted down. solid as a rock now and you can't tell looking at it.

After another forum member suggested them, I bought a pair of GenMar risers. They raise the bars up 1" and back 1 3/8 inches. Unfortunately I will have to wait until May to try them.

Thank you. They are definitely pullback kind, not just straight up risers?

Also, does anyone ever tried using a rubber gasket to decrease vibration? Touring bikes do that upgrade often.

yes, they swivel any way you want them. I tried rubber for the slight mis-fit that I described and it worked ok. it did dampen vibration like you suggest, but I just couldn't get used to the lack of a really solid feel to the bars. that's why I finally went with the safety wire.
