Bar raisers

Postby JetPilot » Thu Feb 05, 2009 1:18 pm

Im wondering can you get bar raisers for the 9. If so do they pose any interference with the fairing when turning.
Has anyone had them or used them... Im keen to find out more and where and how much.

Please help an OLD man and his 9.

Getting too old for it mate. Aren't you selling the beast?

What about Heli bars

Thanks Glen these look like what I'm after.
Yes I'm selling the bike because my wrists cant take the pressure anymore.
I need to sit more upright without my body weight (which is quite a bit) ;) on my wrists.
I luv the 9 and thought this could be a way to keep it.

If you want to go extreme comfort mate try these. Apparently they're the biz and your bike looks kind of trick too. After last years supers I seriously thought about these for the 10. Still might do it one day.

Expensive though

....easy....do what I did, get a Zed instead!

I feel your pain though. I picked some up off ebay a while back for my gixer but they were the wrong fit so never actually tried them out and got the zed soon after.

Another option is Genmar from the US, although not sure if they make them for your 9.

Try PMing Leadbelly - he's got the AuSFR comfort kit on his F1 9r and loves it. If you don't get a response (Pete's not on here very often) I'll let him know you're chasing him next time I see him at the PiTS.

It's still churning around in the old head somewhere. One day it'll happen perhaps.
