* 2" Risers extention for stock Bars. Suzuki C800 / C50 *

Just ordered some 2" risers for my baby
I have been juggling with the idea of a 10" ape just to give a slight rise over the standard position but decided to go for the 2" riser instead to give me ruffly the same riding position.
The reason I decided on the riser rather than the ape is because I really like the classic shape & styling of the stock bars on the c800.
I will pop some photo's on as soon as I get them

Ebay USA - LINK £28.00 delivered to the door, Happy Days

Bargain, will be interesting to see if they are as good a match as they say!

If so then graet price considering the price when you think they are from over the pond.

Yes I'd like to go higher soon - had thought of 10" apes but would be interested to see these and risers would be easier to install probably.

Everyone seems to love higher bars and cast wheels ... Suzuki should take note.

yeah I reckon one day they might just do that & I suppose its always possible politician's may even tell the truth one day as well.

Now don't get bloody silly

I take it you didnt see these link

Hmmmm I ain't sure why exactly I would want to spend not 2x, 3x or even 4x more than I have but 5x the amount of cash on a riser for an M800 when I have a C800, two very different handle bar setups :shock:
I wouldn't have bought them if I had a M800

Stranger things have happened at sea

Sorry dude forgot you had the C

No worries dude you keep surfing ebay, you have come up with some good stuff before

Bloody idiot's sent 2" chrome riser's, instead of "are polished to match the factory risers"
Totally pissed off now but I am going to fit them anyway & when I get time I will spray the risers & extansions black

That's really a pain in the neck as they have made a point of stating they are polished. You have every right to be pissed off. what a load of S.

I just re-read the advert & they definately say they match the factory riser's so I bet you are well vexed

Oh well we will still be interested to see a couple of pic's when they are on & then later when you have had a chance to spray it all black!

I will put it down to experience, at least it was a cheap-ish mod, so I will live with it

Can you leave a comment on their site?

I will as it's Ebay, I would send it back & get them to send the right ones but it'll cost to much in postage to be bothered

Yes it's a difficult call - UK suppliers give more options/contactability but there is so much other stuff out there often for less we are all tempted to go down that route. Probably when you've had them on for a short while you won't even notice the type of finish, and you will be loving the new height of the bars - I'd be more than happy with what you got! Scratched my bloody exhaust yesterday and this morning I could swear blind the mark that seemed massive yesterday is a mere pinprick today! What's done is done and time as always is the great healer.

Time will tell Blues, I will put them on and see how I get on.
I have bought practically every add on that I have on my bike from the states, due to the low costs involved. This is the first Item there has been an error on and although I not happy about it, it won't put me off from doing the same again!

Sorry To here you have scratched your exhaust, thats a real bummer

Massive mark or little prick still not good, I know I would be cussing all the same

Got some risers at last.
Sourced this guy in the States, we had a few mails back and forth,
he was very easygoing with all my stupid questions, and I can't recommend
the service enough. Risers came quickly, and very well packed, with instructions.
This guy does custom bike accessories and machining.
Here is his website ........

Looks pretty much the same as the ones I have

was lookin at (thinking of) new rizers for my bike altough not extention just full rizer is itt pritty much the norm that you can add 2 inches to the size of the rizers fitted as standerd and not have to change cables lets say if the standerd ones are 4 inch you can by and fit 6 inch ones without messing about with anything just wandering thanks

I have never read anywhere about how high you can go extra on the vs750 Morgan. I guess the best way to find out is to undo the bolts and pull the bars up to see how high they will go butdo it while the bars are turned both left and right to alow for the turn stretch. The older VL's were an extra 4 inches.

ill have a little look around on the net see if i can find out crash . extra 4 inches on the older vl thats quite alot dont think id need to go that high even if i could but i spoze your right i should realy mock sumthink up so i can check full turn and find out at what hight it is most comfortable for me

I gotta admit Mr I, when I looked at the link they didn't look like they matched the stock risers that are fitted to my bike. Mine are sort of a lacquered silver alloy finish, like the bog standard fork tubes. I don't know what finish the newer bikes have though, mine's a 2003 Volusia.

Off the top of my head Mick they look a bit like brushed ally.

Mine are like the bottom of the fork leg, Brushed aluminium 2009 model
