Step 1
Remove the handlebar cover or pad and determine if you have a flat style
steering post as pictured to the far left or a pivot style post with a 7/8"
bar welded on top of the steering stem as pictured in the drawing. |
 |
Step 2
Unbolt the handlebar clamps that attach the bars to the steering stem then
pull up and measure the distance from the steering stem top to the bottom of
the factory bar clamps to see how high you can go without affecting the
cables or wiring. Some brake lines can be loosened by the caliper and turned
and retightened to gain extra length. Rerouting brake lines and throttle
cables can also gain you additional length. Do not stretch the cable or
lines in any way and allow for turning. Longer lines and throttle cables can
be purchased and installed if needed |
 |
Step 3
Determine what style of riser block system you want or can use. There are 3.
The first is the the flat block style as pictured installed. The second is a
pivot style block for use with pivot posts and pivot adaptors. The third is
an articulating style. Most of the mounting is very similar. There are some
variation that may need to be discussed if you have some specific needs. If
that is the case please call us for the additional information. |
 |
Step 4
Mount the Block or pivot post adaptor on the steering stem. Flat style set
ups will require you to bolt everything up at the same time. Pivot style set
ups can be done in a few steps. The pictures show us taking a 7/8" bar that
is 5" long and mounting in into the factory neck so we can add an
articulating riser set up or double pivot. On pivot style set ups you can
mount the bars on last. We have risers and clamps to accept 7/8" and 1 1/8"
bars. |
 |
Step 5
Bolt the riser system on and snug it up but do not tighten yet. Add the bars
and snug them up as well. Adjust everything to the position you like best.
Pivot and articulating styles have extra adjustments. |
 |
Step 6
Tighten everything up and check to make sure that none of the cable, wires
or brake lines rub or get stretched when you turn the bars from the far left
to the far right. Add any additional accessories like handguards guards or a kill
switch/teather. |
 |
Step 7
If everything clears then go ahead and put on your handlebar pad or cover.
Enjoy, but also take some tools with you on your ride incase anything
loosens up or needs adjusted. We sell all the riser systems, clamps,
handlebars, bar pads and neck covers. Four different brands of risers can be seen on
our site starting here:

fill in the void and cover the exposed cables and wires-see below |
