I was planning to make a set of risers for my M2 because I couldn't find any when I saw that American Sportbike is now making them. I installed a set tonight and found that they fit well and could be installed in a 1/2 hour by a person who wasn't trying to make pork chops at the same time. The nice thing is that unlike higher bars they don't change the relationship between the instrument pod and the handlebar so no clutch cable/tach problems. The instrument pod moves up close to the fairing, which is a better fit, but will need some extra padding to stop rattles. They move the bars up 1 inch and about 1/2 inch backwards. Much more comfortable for me. I like them.

Good to know, I've been considering doing this, thanks.
