QuadMX Posted July 4, 2004 Report Share Posted July 4, 2004 Well, I'm about 6'3 and it's not very comfortable leaning down/forward so far to reach the bars. I started out using aluminum to make some better risers but I never got it done. So I had these laying around that I milled myself. They are just about 1 1/2" x 1" x 2" I think. Then took off a clamp on the bars and marked the centers on the blocks with a punch. Threw it on a drill press and drilled the holes. The bolts are 4" long. I also threw the nuts and washers in there to make it that much higher. It's SO much more comfortable riding like this. Instead of arms leaning down/forward they are closer to straight across. I find it easier to control while wheelying or jumping also. Note: It's also easier to bend the bolts if you crash or roll it sideways and the bars hit the ground.

SICK BOY Posted July 4, 2004 Report Share Posted July 4, 2004 I had the same problem because I use dirt bike bend bars with a over sized tank.I bought a set of Rox risers,and it was one of the best things I ever bought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuadMX Posted July 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2004 See. That's what I was gonna be making with the aluminum. Except mine was gonna be quite a bit different. Although I never got around to making them...These work rather well and I think I'm just gonna stick with it til I maybe buy some kind of riser or something.
