try here, go to the reference guide, you may be able to phone them and tell them what it is for and how much longer than standard you want and go from there.....

I have the Lamont Risers and use Motion Pro with an added 2". The fit is OK but must say though that I am not very pleased with them. The fittings where they enter the switch housing have rusted rather badly after three years. When I first installed them they felt a little "rough" when operating the throttle. I finally got them adjusted where they were OK. I can't stand the rusted fittings and will be replacing them soon. I will try another brand next time

Thanks for the advice I darn sure don`t want something rusted on there exspecialy the throttle cable.
I messed with it last night and adjusted the brake lever and move cable a little and I got it to lay flat
along the hadle bars and it looks good so hopefully I can get by with it.
