The risers replace the stock 7/8" tube type handlebar clamp-cap to raise the bars up 1" (25mm) and back 1 3/8" (35mm). This will help to relieve wrist and neck pain on long rides. May require some re-routing of control cables, wiring, or hoses. If installing on a DL650 ABS model, you will likely need to extend the brake hose line.
Genmar handlebar risers are machined from billet aluminum and finished in either brushed aluminum or black anodized. Shaped like the base of your handlebar mount, they will raise the handlebars upward and back (due to the fork angle), still leaving the motorcycle with a very stock look. Most riders will have to sit on the bike to notice there is something different. It's more comfortable. Raising the bars up even a mere 3/4" (19mm) makes a real difference in the weight on your hands. Raising your bars with a spacer design, like our handlebar riser, you raise the bars but still retain the stock angle. This is very important to maintaining even weight distribution across your hands during braking and turning. The GenMar Handlebar Riser is designed to raise your handlebars the maximum your motorcycle will allow. The handlebars will not hit the fairing or the tank when turned full-left or full-right. There is no need to remove or change any of the controls on the handlebars. Most installations can be completed in as little as 10 minutes.
Note: If installing these risers on a DL650 with ABS brakes you will need to extend the brake line.
No matter your size, if you suffer from wrist, arm, neck, or back fatigue, these risers will probably help you! Are you cursed with that stinging/burning sensation between your shoulder blades? Add the up and back risers, relax your grip, bring your elbows in closer to your body, and avoid tilting your head back. Chances are that will cure it!
