Alan, I can see a little cottage industry forming   :whistling:

Possibly, in the ideal world i would borrow some tonight and use them over the weekend in France/Belgium and copy them next week if they do as they say on the tin.

:mfr_lol:

I've got some in the garage that I bought from someone here but not got around to fitting them yet. Maybe I'll try this wet weekend!

bar risers 60 mm.with extraction of 12 mm. of the fork legs.
The GTR 1400 is more maneuverable at low speeds with said operation.






MG valerio. :cool:

MG, do you mean the steering is quicker when you raised the forks in the yokes?

Thanks MG ... I find mine tends to understeer a little ( PR3's fitted ). May be worth a fiddle  :smiley:

Fitted mine last night, the ones with the Ram Ball and Powerlet socket. Only had a short comute to work today but it's like day and night. HUGE improvement, I don't reckon I'll bother with the sport touring adaptors that bring them back about another inch or so. Look forward to a long ride to test them out.

I just tried to fit the risers I got from Mr Wolf but could not get the slack I needed on the right hand throttle cables etc?

Is there a secret? I nudes the two small bolts holding the fluid pipes but could not get enough slack to fit them.

Must have a weird bike.

once you have removed the 2 bolts there should be enough ( just ) slack, follow the cables/pipes down the forks and make sure they are not cabletied, you may have to redo the ties in order to release a bit more slack
