Has anyone fitted bar risers to a FZ6 S2?
« on: 02 April 2015, 02:03:22 pm »
I badly need higher bars, as I've got short arms and the riding angle is killing my neck!!
 
I've looked at two sorts of SW-Motech 'universal' risers.  They do a straight 20mm(-ish) lift version, or a 1.52" lift and 1.5" back version.  I've spoken to the importers, and they say SW-Motech only recommend the straight 20mm lifters due to the length of cables.  They say the up and back versions wouldn't work due to the cable lengths on the S2.
 
I think the 20mm lifters would help a bit, but the ideal solution would be the Up and Back version. Has anyone got experience of fitting either type (of any make, really) to an S2?
 
I'm asking because I'm sure I've seen mention on this forum of people fitting both types successfully (without lengthening cables) - but I've searched and can't find the threads.
