Hello Everyone. I'm looking at purchasing a '05 1300. It has some a handlebar riser already installed. I do not know the brand. It appeared to be approximately 1" tall It did look like a solid piece from one handlebar to the next, so perhaps its the heli bars. I'm not sure. Coming from a '98 nighthawk 750, the ST handlebars still seemed low to me, and more sport bike like. The ST handlebars also seemed to be narrow, and closer together. I later verified, that my handlebars, from center of grip, to center of grip, is 25". The ST is 22.75". I'm wondering if this is a function of the bar riser, or it is just what it is with this bike, and the bars are narrower. I prefer my 25".
I did a bit of research on this site, and came up with seeing that Heli bars has a gen III riser. Cost is a bit spendy, at $200 for the model with power and the ram mount ball. It looks like these bars may be more up my alley though, with a 2" rise, and 2" backwards. Not sure if it will do anything with the narrow bars though.
Can anyone comment on that?
Thanks.
