Default bar risers

put these pitposse bar risers ($38 which includes the shipping) on the other day and love them. they are the perfect height for me. i'm 5'11 and can ride standing without leaning over at all.



oh and that's the icon tank bag that i found for $50.

Those appear to be the same as the Tusk brand risers from RockyMountainATV, I have a set and they work great, although I didn't use all of the spacers.

i figured i'd start at the top and work my way down to the best height but they're perfect where they are.

I like the way you think, Craig - I had a pair of bar risers at the NE ride that I was planning on putting on, but I didn't end up using them as I was still trying to get used to riding sand I didn't want to have to get used to a new bike setup at the same time. But yesterday I put them back on and I think this could be a real nice setup. I am also cutting down my bars - the stock on my KTM just feel way too wide. One of the photos from the NE ride caught me coming off one of those little hills at the trials area and while I knew they felt a bit wider than what I was used to, that photo really made me look twice at how far apart my hands were on the bars. I took about 2.5 inches out for 29 inches end to end and I think that will be much better.


Too wide!
