    Hi,

    Can anyone advise on handlebar risers for my street triple rs 2018.

    I am finding the position outs too much weight on my wrists and I would like a more upright riding position.

    hi there,
    I too want some but as ive had them on all bikes i've had BUT I too have the rs and i really don't think there's enough cable length to spare.
    It's VERY tight and not a lot of spare cable.
    However, someone has posted this in a different thread and i don't see why it wouldn't fit, just the cables might be a prob.
    Good luck!!

    Hi Can anyone recommend the quality of M10 bolt I should be buying, especially as it is in such a crucial area of the bike?

    If so, can you you recommend where to get them from?

    I wouldn't want the bolt snapping.....

    Thank you.

    You really want high tensile steel bolts 10.9 grade, standard bolts are 8.8 grade.
    Something like this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M10-10mm...hash=item4d6b9da334:m:mNYo_x5vMmvDXpIdjL7jVRg I don’t know what length you’ll need though.

    Straight fit, they are the Rizoma 50mm high fat bars. If you like red ones i would sell them for 40.00 plus postage.

    Hi Darkman, I like the look, but I would prefer black. Are they OK with existing cables?

    Thank you. where did you buy them from? Did you notice the difference in your ride position and weight on your wrists?

    I got them locally from Moorespeed Racing and yes they make a huge difference as they are also swept back further than the original bars buy a small amount.

    No idea about model type, just brought the bars as Rizoma only do this fat bar in a few sizes but it is the 50mm rise.
