Handle bars.

[MOSESS]

Hi guys and Gals. its finally time to do this mod if possible. I want to raise my bars two inches straight up. I don't need to adjust them or tilt them in any direction . I have not looked under the plastic as of yet I figured I would get some info and guidance first.

Mosess, I take it from your profile that you have a 2014 RSS; if so the RT bars will bolt right on and give you a more relaxed riding position and a bend @ your elbows.

Hi guys I own a 15RT-S I also own a 1994 ImpalaSS so that's where the SS comes from. Its been crazy busy here in north jersey with building projects so I could not get back you guys sooner. Ill go back and read some of the positive posts with a solution to the problem . some of you need to relax. and chill out. thanks

This is something that has been looked at by a lot of folks in here...
I think that we've actually only had ONE person figure out a way to do it...
But I can't remember who it was!
(Mike knows him...)
He ended up adding the risers out at the end of the handlebar center section, and bolting the stub ends in place.
He also had to extend a whole bunch of wiring...

Good luck, and let us know how this project proceeds!

Bob so some one has done it. very good. when the weather breaks ill look into removing some plastic and seeing what I can do. I was hoping some one that has done this mod would come forward...

.... I would have been glad to tell Him too ............ However I've been told to " CHILL OUT ", so that's what I'll do from now on..... just added another to my " IGNORE list " ............Mike

For my Goldwing there were several risers available. They were nothing more than machined wedges with different angles and extended bolts. I think I went through 3 sets before I finally found the exact right one for me. Gotta believe something similar is available for the Spyder. If not now, coming soon.

. Thank goodness! Glad to see that you found this discussion!

I reverted back to stock configuration a while back and don't have any decent pics of the setup. however it's not a difficult mod.
you need 2 pcs of 7/8" steel rod 4" long and a set of RSI risers of desired size. I think up to a 3" riser the wires will not need to be extended. I had 5" RSI risers and had to extend the wires and also the hydraulic clutch line as I have a SM5.

Bob and quasi. thank you both for trying to find the info, this does save a lot of time. I really need to do this mod or buy the adjustable setup. Blue Knight you need to relax my friend don't take this to heart. I did not put my bike info in my first post. I have met you so if I say relax don't get bent out of shape. But if you want to ignore a member because they hurt your feelings .oh well. Mr Quasi if you find any pics or info I would really appreciate all the help you can provide. Again thank you. LOVE AND PEACE BE WITH YOU....
