Rocky at Roxspeedfx.com hooked me up with the new Uly specific risers. I must say, these things are a work of art. I tried posting this yesterday but the forum was down... Loosen your pinch bolts and check your steering head torque while your in there. These babies have all the right cuts for the Uly, and will let you come all the way back. Snug the bars up and rotate them forward to gain access to the rear bolts. Once the rear is tight, pull the bars back and adjust as needed, then tighten everything down. Don't forget to pull your snake....(Bar Snake that is) I do prefer the ATV HI bend better than the stockers. Vibes are much less as well. The Moose Racing mirror bashers are a perfect fit for these bars. I have ordered some black plastic for the moose handguards.

Very nice! How is comfort? For me, 5'10" with 30" inseam, much better. Less vibes. Feels more like I am sitting in the bike, instead of on it. |

Do they make them for the 1 1/8" bars too? |

PSO, The shield is zero gravity tall tinted. Yes, I like it. It provides me with more of a cockpit to be in, instead of on top of. Paochow, The bars are about 1" lower than the stockers. The Rox risers are about 2". The grip angle of the pro taper atv hi bend bars is more sport oriented than the stockers. All in all, they are about an inch higher and 1" closer. Bake, Not yet, but as soon as they do I will be moving up to them. |

What's the skinny on the clutch lever you have? did you mod the clutch at the same time? Does that company that makes the clutch lever make a brake to match? |

Has 3 different pivot points to change the pull effort. It lets the cable end swivel so there is no side load on the cable. Rocky Mountain ATV for 39.95 buckaroonies. I like it for the two finger effort in the traffic here in the republic.

If you are considering this mod and need some bars, I have a brand new set of TAG Metals X5 handlebar that I bought and don't plan to use. SX HI 808MM Wide 104MM Height 61MM Pullback http://www.tagmetals.us/mx/productdetails.php?id=x5bars
I'll sell it for $40 delivered. PM me if you are interested. (Message edited by ft_bstrd on May 10, 2007) |

Treadmarks, thanks for the post. I purchased a set of these risers based on this post and I'm not disappointed. The quality is great and the bars are positioned just perfect for me now. |
