Hi every one my first post on here I have a 2017 tiger 800 xcx I am thinking of putting bar risers on as my back hurts when I have been out riding for a few hours I am all so thinking of fitting a touring screen has any one on here done either of these and possibly point me in the right direction as to what I should be spending my hard earned cash on many thanks paul
Hello Paul and welcome. I had to address both issues with my xrt. I'd get a pain right between the shoulder blades after a fair time in the saddle. Cured it completely by fitting the bar risers ( triumphs own ). Top of the range screen ( there are many, cheaper alternatives ) is the Madstad. Excellent but they're so expensive at about £280. I fitted a used givi airflow screen for £70. Really happy with it. Its adjustable, with a great range of movement. Any specific questions just holler.
Thanks Johnson I have been in to my local triumph dealer and asked them if triumph do a bar riser and there reply was no they don’t they said I would be better looking at after market risers
Sorry mate. Thought they were triumphs own. I bought them off the same chap selling the screen I bought about 12 months ago. I've had a look and they have no makers ID on them. Tried to attach a photo
Paul, these look like my risers on ebay £45 Triumph Tiger 800 2011-2019 SW Motech 20mm Handlebar Bar Risers
Hi Paul, welcome from me. Johnjo's advice is spot on.... Triumph's own risers (tell your dealer you want the bar mounts that come 'standard' on the XC model) and Givi Air Flow screen. My 2017 XRT was the most uncomfortable bike I've owned until I made those changes (along with a new seat). The above two photos look exactly like my (XC) bar mounts, they raise the handlebar approx. 25mm which made all the difference for me.
Hi All. Newbie here from Downunder. I was thinking of putting some risers on my 2019 XRT as I feel a little pitched forward when standing on the pegs ( on the occasional dirt road) Did the SW Motech 20mm Handlebar Bar Risers interfere with control cables at all ? Cheers, Ant.
Cannot help you on touring screen. Fitted these risers. Note that, unless arranged at an angle, you will need shortened Allen keys to tighten up as otherwise the Allen keys foul on the body of the riser. Very good quality product and cheaper than some others. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRIUMPH-...768626?hash=item33e0ea1272:g:RI8AAOSwOuheg86F
