I haven't tried them, but last Monday we stopped at a Triumph dealer and they had those (1" bar Dia.) for about $60.00. Seems like a good deal if your sitting on the fence about changing your handlebar height.

I haven't tried them either, but I did put Harley Deuce risers on mine and it was a great mod.

Lot of meat there to have that little bolt hold......
I'm afraid I wouldn't trust the construction of it, but I'm not an engineer either........

Get Harley Duece and I think you will like them. Small modification has to be made, but very easy to do. I'm back to my stock ones, some one wanted the Duece risers worse than I did, so he got em.........

I started off with the LA Monsters risers but they were just not enough. I went to the Harley Deuce risers and love them!

Received the risers today. Beautifully chromed with polished stainless screws. I doubt there's any chance of shearing those bolts.

Be sure to post a picture when you get them installed. I'm curious as well... -Scott

I had something similiar on my XS11. Made the handlebars fit the Vetter fairing (which I removed) better.

Those little risers hardly seem worth the money or the labor effort of putting on IMO. But it might be just enough to change the ergonomics for some. Interested in reading some feedback. I robbed a set of 4" Rivco Risers from my VTX 1800R and put em on my Valk I/S, much better. I did have a spare set of VTX 1800 C Risers that I put on my VTX 1800R. I would like to see a set of Duece risers next to stock risers to see the difference if anyone has that.

They were exactly what I needed. Very easy install, and very sturdy.
