Title: 7/8" Handlebar options, need risers
Post by singlesgoinsteady on 08/13/15 at 06:56:00

I have looked in the forums, but, you can't search the "/" symbol. Has anyone found replacement risers that go straight onto the stock triple so we can have 7/8" bars? Let me know if you have found them, I'm not sure how universal standard 7/8" risers are, whether or not they fit in our stock cone dampeners. Thanks.

Any riser that accepts a 10mm bolt will fit on the triple tree so far as I know. If you want to search eBay or Amazon, there are probably a couple of dozen different options.

Example:

Aftermarket risers can be found at several different heights, but you start running into trouble with the mounting hardware since many are made for snowmobiles and ATVs that use the 7/8" bar, or American bikes with a different (1/2") mounting bolt.

A set of risers from a metric 250cc bike with 7/8" bars will likely be your cheapest solution. Many of them use the 10mm mounting bolts.
