I replaced the stock risers and bars with harley 27" drag bars (1" diam) and 4" harley risers. I appologize 100 times but I have no pics. The camera is busted.
The biggest issue was to convert the bushings and spacer inside the bushings to accept a 1/4 inch bolt. The way I see it is, there are 2 options.
Option 1. Pay a machine shop to mill the bolts so that 1 side is 1/4 inch (fine thread) to fit inside the risers and the other side is that of the stock suzuki bolt. This way you can retain the factory bushings and spacer.
Option 2. Replace the factory spacer that will accept a 1/4 inch bolt and reem out the bushings a hair to accept the new spacer.
I opted for option #2 because all the machine shops were closed. If I could do it again, I would probabaly go with options #1 . Although it took me all day, it worked great, looks great and is strong and safe. Here is what I did.
1. remove stock bars & risers.
2. Remove the stock bushings from the trees.
3. Remove the stock spacer inside the bushings.
4. Go to home depot and buy a 1' section of 7/16 O.D. steel pipe from the plumbing section
5. Drill out inside diameter of the pipe with a 1/4 inch drill bit then cut it to length. This is your new spacer.
6. Used a dremel grinding attachement that measured about 7/16 to widen the Inside of the rubber bushings to accept the new spacer. This really stinks. It makes a burning rubber smell througout your garage and leaves dirty rubber residue all over the place. BUT IT WORKS!
7. Re assemble new risers, slightly enlarged bushings and new spacer with new bolts (1/4' fine thread)
8. handlebars go on like normal.
9. DONT FORGET THE THREADLOCK!
Here is the link to the risers that I used. They look so freaking sweet!!
