Handlebar risers: F650GS
28 November 2007 - 11:26am
I bought myself a tank rucksack yesterday from Atlantic and noticed that standing up is now a lot more uncomfortable than before. In fact I'm 1.8m tall so even before the rucksack was fitted standing-up I had to slightly compensate for the low handlebars.
Does BMW have standard handlebar risers or what should I look out for to raise my handlebars a bit?
Cheers,

Contact a Gentleman called harold (Harold Pienaar [hp@zipski.co.za]) from a company called Bikegear. Check the website to look at the handlebar risers www.bikegear.co.za

We usually have stock of raisers.(non BMW)
Wide footpegs also help obtain a better position as you can move our feet further back.
I also had my seats modified (built up) locally so I could pinch it with my knees. +/- R400.00

Thats an excellent price!
If they will fit your bike be it 650,1150 or 1200, run and get them.
