Bar Risers
By: Streeter Date: October 8, 2015, 8:28 am

I would like higher handlebars on my '13 690. I have
installed bar risers on my other bikes. I assume I could go
with 1" risers and not have to replace the cables/ brake lines,
but how about 2"? Has anyone installed 2" bar risers? Or
do you have a recommendation for a taller handlebar?
Thanks,

If you go with the Scott's steering damper - it raises your bars
enough.

Well, I'll answer my own question here. I bought 30mm (1.2")
1 1/8" dia bar risers from Rocky Mountain ATV for about $21. I
installed them, and the only thing I had to do was to loosen the
throttle and twist the whole thing 180 degrees so the throttle
cables are on the bottom now.
More comfortable for me, especially when I stand up. I'm
happy with the change.
