#100866 Mark7 (User) Look for me on MSN chat if you want. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1066 Risers 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago   One of our clinic members sold me a set of Yamaha billet handlebar risers. They were in perfect condition and I actually installed them without uttering any words that you wouldn't hear at a local camp meeting. They answered my riding position problem like a charm. Only problem is they don't have those nice little plastic "chrome" buttons to cover the bolt heads. Anyone know if they make covers for these or am I stuck with the very industrial looking bolt heads staring me in the face as I tool around town in a more comfortable position?

If so, use those.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #100869 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13223 Re:Risers 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Try a Google search for kool kovers. I heard they went out of biz but maybe someone picked them up.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #100870 smhowse (User) NOPE, it's a Roadstar!

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1066 Re:Risers 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I tried to use the ones from the old risers but the bolt heads stick up too far. It's as if the bolts are too long for the cover. I guess that could be the case. I'm assuming they are the original bolts that came with the risers. Guess I better contact the seller and double check. Thanks all!

A little experiment before I decide to get either different bars or risers. So far, it seems the higher I go the better. Any suggestions?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #100941 Mark7 (User) Look for me on MSN chat if you want. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1066 Re:Risers 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Scrubber, I used to have some mild tingles in my hands when the bars were in the stock position. Putting the risers on seems to have cured that issue.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1549 Re:Risers 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago   My risers are on backorder, but I can't wait to get them on. Tingling fingers and elbow pain on the 12-hour rides to GA and back were incentive enough for me!   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access.
