Thread: handle bar height?

  1. #1
    i just finished making a set of risers/ 1 1/8 bar mounts. they raise the bars 3/4" does anyone know what bend of protapers would get me close to stock bar height on an 05 xb9sx. I was planning on the CR high bend, but wondered if anyone one knew what would be close. Thanks for any input

    i have pro taper mini suzuki's on mine. they are almost identical to stock except they have 3" less bend (more drag bar style than the 4" sweep of stock). I used a 1" riser from precision engineering and all cables fit, but they were snug. also, here is a link to a bunch of bar measurements.

    i'll post a picture of my bars close up if you are interested.
