Anybody still making bar risers for the 907?

Bar risers are very rare and I don’t think anyone still makes them. I found mine on Ebay two years ago for $65.00 (US) but I have not seen any since then. They made a huge difference in the comfort of the ridding position.

If you know of a good machine shop you could probably trace the bar rises and have some aluminum machined to the proper size; mine are about ¾” thick.

Good Luck

I was thinking they are quite ineffective.
Really, have you got many benefits in the comfort?

Made a set from Gerhards drawings. Found 3/4" is max as clutch resevoir just touches at this height. Did mainly so could raise forks in triples. Found comfort was improved, but sold bike before substantial miles were put on it. Maybe the present owner will come on board with his feelings. BTW he originally wanted them off.

yep, carl is right.
the risers make the bike extremely comfortable to ride for long periods of time. i find i am not leaning on my wrists and can assume a much more natural upright riding position.
i cant compare to before they were on obviously, but the bike handles just fine so i cant say that appears to be any negative handling effects.
bike rides just beautifully.
have very much fallen for it the more i own/ride it. :lick:

Hi ducman

I am about to get some made and have placed a message in the classified forum to assess the interest. None at all so far, so it looks like I will be ordering 5 pairs. The estimated price and other info is in my classified message.
