    How much does it raise your bars?

    What bike do you have?

    My '07 TE 250 actually had the bars lowered by about 3/4" because you lose the stock bar risers in the conversion.

    Yeah, depends on the mounting and bike. Usually about a half inch or so for underbar applications. Can also go with our very low profile over bar and not raise them at all if that is the goal.

    Got a 2008 SM510. I want to get the bars higher (thinking at least 1" higher, maybe more) so trying to determine if I get damper, what riser combo I may or may not need to do so.

    I'm 6'2, and was unable to stand and ride with the stock configuration (2009 txc450). I added the motosportz damper, and kept the bar spacers (even though instructions said to replace them with the damper). The height just about perfect. I can stand comfortably while riding. Another 1/4" would probably be spot on, but it's more than acceptable as it is.

    I'm 6'2" and it raised my 08 TE250 slightly and can stand very comfortably. I followed the instructions and did remove the stock spacers.

    I also added teh damper and it make the bars higher and much easier to ride standing up. I like it.

    the only bad thing is that the aftermarket gas tank wont fit with the dampener.
