Home made bar risers
Looking pretty hard at the spiegler LSL handlebar kit but the $500 price tag has kept me back and has me thinking of other options.
I saw a thread where a guy (ratbyk) made his own LSL type bar riser out of an old yamaha xs1100 triple tree. Do you guys know of any other triple trees that would fit the top of our bikes forks?

They also make 3 inch risers but you have to extend the brake lines

I used lsl match riser clip ons, and made simple brackets to relocate the resevoirs so they would clear the fairing, ground the locater nubs off hte switches etc
I hated the stock downward angle and pull back though, otherwise just use helibar risers IMO.

+1 on the LSL kit. Great looking new top triple tree. Stainless brake lines come with it too.
If you are tall this LSL Kit and Buell pegs makes a ZX-14 perfect.
