Help, handlebar risers?

[ygolohcysp]

Hello.

I've looked into doing this as well. I like the idea of the convertibars, but they are a bit too expensive for my tastes, and to be honest, I know I'd somehow screw those up, and get them so they weren't even. And if I did, then as soon as I'd want to readjust them, then they wouldn't be even. But then, I don't have them, and they may be much easier to get even than I would believe.

I also looked into the aluminum blocks, but it seemed too mundane. Besides, I redid my forks, and have Tmod's adjuster caps on them.

So this was what I had figured on going with.

As far as I know, you'd have to drop the forks through the upper tripple just a tad so the clamp on brackets could sit on top of the tripple tree. But my idea with this is since they have the separate piece that gives the rise and holds the bars, you could buy more plates. Put on taller plates for that long ride to the rally, or where ever you're going, and then swap on shorter plates for a sportier ride. I even emailed the company asking if you can get just the riser plates, and they said sure thing.

I have NOT done this, so I can't vouch for anything. I know they sell the fork clamps in the size of our Kat forks. I ended up doing other mods for now. I still plan on doing this though.

Convertibars if you can afford it.

I have a set and they are great. Infinitely adjustable. I bought mine used.

Hmm, now I'm wondering if that kit is enough.

Thank you, I'll think on that.

Swap to the 750 tree, the bars are already like 2" higher on the 750s.

I want to switch to a set of bars and sit up a little straighter.

I can't seem to find a vendor for any options for an '06 600 Kat. I just got an email back from spiegler and they said they don't make a kit.

Any body know anyone else, or have any good methods of doing a home job. I want it to be safe and proper.

I have seen a couple good set ups for 750's but they have different triple trees.

Lemme know, thanks in advance.
