Hi everyone, I remember seeing a thread a while ago with a link to purchasing Motosportz fat bar risers (the black or red ones), but now after going onto the Motosportz site cannot find them. Can anyone help me and suggest where I might be able to get some fat bar risers from? Cheers Skeeta
You could always use something like Rox Riser or PowerMadd--search Amazon. I just put a set of Rox on mine and they are great.
Hey Next, which version of Rox did you get? could you upload some pictures? What bars are you running with the risers? Thanks in advance.
I've got the PowerMadd riser set-up on my Terra. It's a one piece riser, so figure it may be more stable than the Rox (but haven't had Rox, so not sure). Running Pro Taper KX High Bend with the risers, so my set-up is about as high as you can go with the existing cable lengths. I'm 6'5" and this set-up added a couple inches of height - bike fits great now. Can post a close up pic later if you want, but wanted to pass on that PowerMadd works great on the Terra. The Motosportz ones are well made and look good (I know, as I bought one of the last pairs - standard set, was all they had left - as a backup in case the riser deal would not work), but won't give you the same level of rise as the PowerMadd.
I went with the Speed FX Rox Risers. You can get one set that goes from 7/8 to either 7/8 or fat bars, just double check models to be sure you get the combo you want. I bought mine from Amazon to get the Prime shipping, but you can grab Rox Risers from just about any place for about $75-$90 shipped. This is the best shot I have right now, it's from a few weeks ago. If you want more detail I can get you some up close shots tonight. The risers add about 2 inches and require a re-routing of the throttle cable. It took about 10 minutes to thread it around front and then zip tie it. I think the rise is perfect. I am 6ft and can stand straight up and reach the stock bar off road with no issue.
Here's a couple pics. Not the best quality, but should give you a good sense of the PowerMadd and fatbar combo.
Recently got my fat bar clamps from Kelly. They aren't much of a riser but with the KX high bars, the position came up about an inch? I dig them. Next step is the HDB hand guards...their top clamps are smexy to me.
The Strada stock lower bar clamps bolt through the top triple clamp. Would be easy to replace the lower clamps with a longer one with a longer bolt or a spacer under it with a longer bolt and still use std clamps. Just remember to use a hi tensile bolt though and DON"T overtighten it. I replaced my whole clamps to for an aftermarket fat centre bar set
Hey MattyG - what height PowerMadd riser to do you have? I was thinking of getting a 3" riser, and keeping the stock bars - and was wondering how that compared to your overall bar height. I'm 6'4", so interested in getting enough bar height to stand comfortably, without running into the need to extend cables.
