I have ordered the 2" block riser from Lamonster. I watched the video on the install. In the video he says if the wiring bundle coming from each side of the handle bars is to short to get the handle bars onto the riser just take off the side plastic and you can see the wires and unclip some zip ties. This was done on a unit with analog gauges so it is not like the 2020. Getting ready for the install I took my handle bars off and the wiring bundles have very little if any play. The bundles do not to down the side (that I can see anyway). If there is anyone who has installed the Lamonster riser on a unit with digital gauges how did you get the wiring bundle to give you slack. Again this is on a unit with digital gauges not the analog gauges. Are the wires behind something on the right side before I can see them?

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Here is a snip I took from someone else's post. I used this when I put the reduced reach bars on my 2020RT. I wish I could remember who the original poster was. He deserves all the credit -- it sure helped me!
If you remove the right hand speaker cover next to the glove box, you'll find the zip tie. The speaker cover comes off super easy, but you have to be careful. You remove it by pinching with your fingers and gently pulling up on the inside portion. You'll see the mounting tabs and how to reinstall. Underneath the speaker cover is obviously, the speaker. However, the speaker can't be removed easily because of the plastic dash and the speaker is located inside of a plastic housing that partially blocks access to the wire harness.
The harness runs underneath the handlebars. The left side wires route to the right side, and the right and left side harnesses are zip-tied together on the right side. The zip tie is anchored to the frame by way of a plastic and metal clip that I couldn't easily dislodge. I cut the zip tie using a long bladed scissor. This must be done SUPER carefully so you don't nip the wires. However, once done you can gently pull enough slack wire to finish the job.

Well got the speaker grill off and yes I can see the wires. Mine has a plastic clip the mounts onto another piece of plastic and closer to the handle bars are two metal bands. No zip ties. I was able to cut one of the bands but the other is just in a place I can't get to. The riser is due today and if I can't get enough wire I will have to send it back. Hate to do that but I am not taking the whole dash off. I have a call into Lamonster and hopefully they will have an idea.
