    Hi I have just joined the forum. I ride a Thunderbird 1600 and live in Scotland. My question is this - I bought the bike with T bars fitted. Can risers be fitted to increase bar height.

    Not sure what you mean by T bars. There are risers available for the stock bars.
    I'm a shorty and find the bars are just a nice position for me.
    Also riding a 1600

    Welcome in Gaz friendly helpful bunch on here some are useful some not so useful and should be in a secure wing somewhere, so you want to fit ape hanger bars to your Thunderbird, that's different, you may not be able to keep your kilt down and look like a flasher LOL.
