I have a XB12STT Lightning, would like that extra inch. Are the brake, clutch and electric lines alright with just a 1" riser?

Which one would you recommend ?

I don't have a TT, but I was able to raise the bars on my XB12S a couple of inches, so I don't think you will have a problem.

A real nice pair of one inch risers is made by Precision Engineering one of our sponsors.

Another way to skin the cat, is to take another top clamp, turn it upside down and put it under the stock clamp.

Adds 3/4" and cost about $20, not nearly as cool as the PE parts, for sure, and not a whole lot cheaper either.

Kutzner, you shouldn't have a problem with the one inch risers.

I have the center clamp and risers from PE. I highly recommend their products.
