[dsn_klr650] handlebar risers

Nick,
I been down this road and this is what I'd recommend.
1)Rotate your bars so that they are 'nearly' in the highest postion, then...
2)Estimate- How tall of bars you could get so that 'with yours
hands on the bars, in the seated postion' you'd still be comfortable. Then....
3)Estimate- All cables and lines to determine if indeed they will reach
your newly 'estimated bar height'.
4)Purchase- different, taller bars than the ones you now have on. (You
may find a wonderful selection at bargain prices at a salvage yard.(5-$20?,
maybe all, or solid alum.??) Seems like taller bars just ain't made these
days.....or maybe at an ATV place..........then they're $$$.
5)Install the purchase and experiment with comfort/practicality heights.
6)If the above doesn't work, or nearly does work, I'd look at
peg position/possible modification----last.
