Was looking into ways of relocating bars on on a S1 up and back I have seen Rox risers on Ulys and XB Lightnings but never seen them on a S1 has anyone ever used them or had any experience with them on a tuber? Am wondering if they work with factory dash?

What year S1
The early years had bolt on bottom halfs of the bar clamps. The later ones they were cast into the triple tree.
If you have the early version you can use longer bolts and a spacer and keep everything stock.

If you have the cast setup Rox will not keep the stock setup without some custom brackets.

Zoom in on this pic and you will see what I mean

Not entirely your setup but you can see the bottoms are bolted on

Thanks for the info S1, I think I found something that should work. I realized this is a late model lightning in the picture but the concept seems sound as long as the bars are the same size. Does anyone know where I can get these or something similar to these have seen them in different sizes but can't seem to locate them at the moment. I believe LSL may make them. I think they should work with the stock dashboard.

Precision Engineering makes those. They also make a 2" version, ut you have to be sure the cables have enough slack, or replace them.

Those would work just make sure they are for 7/8 bars

The option I've seen most often on Buells is just to buy another of the top half of the clamp, flip it upside down, cut some short spacers(to fill the gap between the recessed bolt holes) and get some longer bolts, and clamp your bars back in it. This link shows you what I'm trying to describe.
