Hi, I have a Svartpilen 401, I am finding it a little small for my 6,4" frame. I test rode an Street Triple RS yesterday and really liked it, I wanted to check if anyone around my height uses bar risers (and if there is slack in the cables to accommodate them) and if anyone has added an aftermarket steering damper? Thanks.
I wanted to install a 2" riser on my 2020 Street Triple R. I believe the cables will stretch enough to work, but it appears that the hydraulic brake hose would need to be replaced with a longer one.
The difficulty fitting a set of risers to the Street Triple 765 range is as follows, it may appear that the cables reach with the higher risers installed, however when on lock there is no free movement, you risk not only ripping out the cables and wiring you could lose control causing collision, a guy had his in for a service and whilst checking lock to lock low and behold it stretched the cables etc, if cornering on tightish hairpin bends the above could have taken place. You could adjust the position of the handlebars to tailor it to suit your style and comfort. Ride safe all.
I did buy it, very happy so far. I changed the tyres and will bolt some protection on to it. The risers i will leave for now, i may be able to make some adjustment to the seat instead.
