Anyone know of who would make longer throttle cables for a xb12x after installing a set of rox risers (2")? I would like to 'roll' the bars back a little further than what is available with the stock cables. The bike seems more neutral that way like my 1983 Husky xc250. easier on the wrists for sure.

I was able to bring my bars all the way back on my 2010 xb12x Uly by rotating the ROX risers (2") back, but just barely enough cable length to do it. Actually, I wish I could have come back about another 1.5". There is very little to complain about the bike, but I wish manufacturers would add the few more cents worth of cables. lines, and wires to allow more ergonomic adjustment options with the bars.

I adjusted the positioning of the cables enough to make the adjustment to the bars. Good luck.
