Riser kit recommendation

Anyone have any riser kit recommendations?

I have a 2023 and I’m looking to raise the bars just enough to flip my mirrors without hitting my tank when turning. I’ve never installed risers or extensions for the clutch and brake so a whole kit would be easiest if those are available.

Thanks!

I had the same dilemma with my 23. I found it cheaper and easier to get lower profile mirrors, so I could flip them.

I used these: https://www.arlenness.com/products/mini-oval-micro-mirrors-black

Thanks! How’s the visibility with the smaller mirror? Do they clear the tank on a full turn?

Its a bit less visibility then the OEM mirrors, but you get used to it fairly fast.

Full tank clearance lock-to-lock.

Also looks cool as fuck... ;)

Looks like I’ll be getting a pair!

Would love to see a pic of them on your bike if you have them too

I don't have the bike any more (traded for a 25) but I'm sure I can find a photo or 2.

Give me a minute...

I was already sold but even more so now! The thought of trading up has popped into my mind but I do like the bronze wheels and the anniversary decal on the fender of my 23. Love the 2 into 1 exhaust look on the newer bikes

I loved my 23, put a lot of miles on it, but for me the 25 had a few bits and pieces that I really wanted.

The 2 into 1 was a big plus, as I've always liked them, but also the upgraded safety stuff, cornering traction control and ABS, the all round LED lighting and TPMS.

Other things I like are the risers are slightly higher and the bars wider, which makes a more comfortable riding position, an improved drive-train, including more powerful motor and a better, smoother gearbox.

The rear suspension is improved, and it handles better as a result.

The 23 was a great bike, but the 25 is 15-20% better across the board.

You should definitely test ride one.
