    Default Triad bars or risers?

    I have a 2013 Rt is it really worth the $400. difference and the hassle of installing the triax bars over the risers?

    A Search of the forum found many many happy folks with the Tri Axis Bars

    But yes they're a bit more complicated to install, and do you have the GPS mount on your 2013? Then you have to get a different GPS mount for the bars.

    Which Risers are you referring to?

    It all depends on what you're trying to accomplish.

    Just trying to get a little more comfort. I've had both shoulders operated on and I feel if I could get the bar back a little more it would help.I'm hoping to find some one that as modified theirs so I could fill the difference. Thank

    If you are going to install risers, make sure they are three or four inches high. The one and a half BRP's don't do anything.

    here is how I did it. I use to have 5 inch risers but got rid of them. waiting on my 3 inch risers to show up. you may or may not have to extend your wires. and if you have a standard shift trans you will prolly have to install a longer hydraulic line, I did. the stub bars are 4" x 7/8" diameter. $100 and a little time is all. and with these risers you can pull them back a good ways as long as the wiring will allow it. i'm in Morgantown so when I get this contraption put back together i'll run down and you can see what I did.IMG_6714.JPGs-l1600.jpg

    That would be great.Their's not many of us around. I see you were a sailor, my son will be retiring when he gets back from Rota Spain. Looking forward to meeting another Spyder rider. Thanks
