Handlebar risers

Am getting a bit of a kink in my neck due to riding position, conemplating handlebar risers which I believe will resolve the prob but they're friggin $200+ from the one place I can find them in the US of A, anyone have any idea of an Australian joint that might make them for the ZZR600 (96 model)?

Jezas Mick, handlebar risers for a zzr6, about time you upgraged the the mighty GN250 assault weapon.

YA BIG FARKEN SOOK

you wouldn't make it too the corner shop on a "Barra"

As for the Risers i believe Gos has made a coupla sets, he'll be along shortly tgo give the details, Speaking of which he's been pretty quite, must have got donuts in the shopping last pay day

I have these, I took em off after about 3 months, can go seek/search/destroy the shed if your interested in a pair of second hand ones and if they fit your bike.

I found they were great for the back, neck arms... but made the bullet a little "truck" like in the corners. But I have zip reach on all of my bikes.. so it may have just been moi.

If you can hunt them down be apprecviative, they are what I was looking at buying but $200 worth and if they make the bike a barge in corners then they'll hit the shed like your's did.

Brett, think about a 9 occassionally but then I think nah, so mcuh out there to try, sometimes think about 900 Hornet too but the shit I cop for being a Honda rider and the fact we've lost a few too many to the dark side lately puts me off a bit, the fact I have $0 in the bank might also have something to do with it too...

From what Ive heard about your mechanical skills thats probably a good idea, I can just imagine it spinning off and you putting a few holes in the tank

Reminds me a bit of American Chopper

Mick, $200 is C-H-E-A-P mate, a set of Heli-bars for the 12 is up around $400 !!!. I don't think you will find a set of risers for the ZZR anyway, because it has pretty high bars to start with.............

I did knock up a set for the 12, a *rough draft* you might say.........When I do the next set, I will use the gas-axe and not the stick welder........will give a better finish to the welds......

Ponti - I was away for the Island Classic, only got jam donuts down there mate

Gos, may well be CHEAP but it's $200 i'd rather put towards some pipes frankly

They do exist, see previous post from cowasaki who is feverishly demolishing her shed looking for the set she has as we speak

good gawd.. I ventured and lived.

The shed, is a place that you dont want to visit at 5 in the morning. (remember to put husband on notice for incorrectly setting alarm for 345am instead of 445am

)

I fossicked and found said husbands stash... grinders, sanders, security lights, all still in new boxes, bits n bobs etc etc..those chairs he had to have that are still in plastic

(Note to self...remove credit card from his wallet)

Could I find the tub with bike bits.. nope

Will send him on what is obviously a boys excellent adventure to the holy grail of boy world tonight.

Sorry for the delay. MD.. can you PM me your addy ?
