handle bar risers and controls?
do handle bar risers worth it? I'm 6'4" 220, every time I ride my hands are killing me. What are good brands to go wth for the 06 zx10?
Is there a way to move the shifter, brake and pegs to give me more room? If I could get 2-3 more inches that would be great. Maybe a kit? where and how much?
THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP!

Heli bars rock on my 04 10. dont know if they are out for the 06 yet. Up 2" & back 1.5" ?to a much better position. I also have Sato reasets but I think they are at a stock hieght.

I am 6'2" at 210...here's the trick for your wrists and hands...at slower speeds, squeeze your legs harder against the tank; this takes all the weight off your wrists...but I also remember the comfort feel on the 06 was poor compared to the 05 I have...more cramped, seat good for the track only. The mags have all indicated the same things as I just mentioned for comfort...

I'm going to try the handle bar risers, now I'm new to riding, but do rear sets move the controls back? The pictures I've seen look like it would do something of the sort, maybe?
Thanks!!
