Title: Rox Speed FX's Rox Pivoting Risers Post by: bluesman77 on January 08, 2009, 12:19:33 PM Have any of you used the subject risers? Seem like a nice product if cables and hoses are long enough.http://www.roxspeedfx.com/cgi-bin/cart/showitems.cgi?subcat_id=268

Title: Re: Rox Speed FX's Rox Pivoting Risers Post by: bluesman77 on January 08, 2009, 06:25:36 PM No everyone finds the factory configuration ideal. I have back, neck and wrist problems that these parts might help. I hardly consider a 2" arc ape hanger territory even at their highest position. Thanks for your input, I really appreciate it..........really.
Title: Re: Rox Speed FX's Rox Pivoting Risers Post by: Porsche Monkey on January 08, 2009, 06:39:14 PM I have not tried them. I have clip-ons on my bike. There are several people on here though that use risers of some sort or the other. You may have better luck with this if you post over in the accessories and mods section. Welcome to the forum, it is a great place to be.

Good luck on the aches. They're all worth it! ;D Title: Re: Rox Speed FX's Rox Pivoting Risers Post by: Dirt Monster on January 09, 2009, 06:40:10 AM I have those on my DRZ400S. I also had the previous version of the risers on my DR650. Cables just barely long enough. They are awesome. I have custom risers on my monster, but I wouldn't hesitate in using the Rox Speed products. Of course, I spend most of my time riding my monster off-road while standing, and I'm 6'3", so bringing the bars up is essential.
An added bonus is that the extra leverage helps when picking up your bike. ;D Here's a couple photos of my chopper with the ape hangers [moto] (http://10012.smugmug.com/photos/392553348_boV56-M.jpg) (http://10012.smugmug.com/photos/246370516_akxmg-M.jpg) Title: Re: Rox Speed FX's Rox Pivoting Risers Post by: Heath on January 09, 2009, 09:17:20 AM [clap]
