Expensive but very adjustable option [size=78%]http://www.motohaus.com/acatalog/Vario_Barback.html[/size]


Up and back option [size=78%]http://www.motohaus.com/acatalog/Handleb..._back.html[/size]


up only, various, from 20 to 50 mm [size=78%]http://www.motohaus.com/acatalog/Handleb...25_mm.html[/size].


I have had a Gen 1 seat rebuilt by digger seats with about 20mm extra in the height and made the riders seat area longer (in the Corbin Style). It makes the seat height a little tall for my dad (who I share the bike with) as he seems to have shrunk a bit as he has got older (80 this year), will have to see how it suits me when I get home in July.

thanks for that, some good links.

As i said i think mine are rasied 8-10mm, and with a quick ride seem o.k  I guess a few mill more might be nice but alot of the risers are 20,30,40mm high - which i think is too high.

I would also like them back a bit (towards the rider) but again, the risers you can buy seem to bring them back 25 - 40mm....yet again, i think thats too far. i reckon i would only want them back about 15mm which is why i think i may look a different bars to replace the 758's i have.

i know 10 mm higher and 15mm back might seem bugger all but i think it will make a difference....especially when riding all day. Might wait till i get my seat rebuilt and re access the situation.

Anyone know of any bars like the 758's but where the ends sweep back abit closer to the rider?

cheers
