handlebar height?

<< < (2/3) > >>

snoopjonnyjon:
Are you running stock cables?

BasketCase:
I'm 6'7", I use the Jimmy Button bars, Rox 2" risers and have 3/8" spacer under the factory clamp.  The seat is stock height with a gripper cover, I rarely sit down.  This setup is pretty good, not perfect but I dont suffer from having to hunch over constantly.  I had to reroute the cables but all are still stock with no binding.  Another upside is nobody wants to ride my bike because my bars are so high.

Bigtim:
re-routing cables for me too. Brake could use a + 3" line but I just removed the #plate guide and it is maxed out on a stand. Works fine though. When I sold a bike to a ave. Sizedguy (5'9") he said it rode like a harley with apehangers. Should have taken all the tall guy stuff off first  :-D

snoopjonnyjon:
I put a pair of Protaper Pastrana FMX /ATV Race bars on last night, along with a TAG riser, of forgotten height  :?. I haven't ridden yet, but it feels very comfy sitting on the bike. I think it will make a big difference once I get riding. I was able to use all factory cables, hoses, wiring.
