The Throttlemeister has nothing to do with the risers. It is merely a device that inserts in the end of the handlebars, where the plastic plugs are on the stock grips. Just like bar-end weights. The NMN riser bars are hollow, to accept the plug or Throttlemeister.I am hoping to get the 3" NMN risers since I already have the 1" risers, but do not find them much help. Also want to get the Throttlemeister but will it work with the NMN 3" risers? Anything in particular I need to know ahead of time.

Hate to keep asking questions, but doe the 3" NMN risers also bring the bars(grips)closer to you. In other words, they are 3" higher & also pulled back some too?
How do you set the TM while you are riding. Is it a two handed operation? One hand holding the throttle and the other to turn the TM to set it?

You can set the TM before you ride, if you don't mind the constant friction, and are accustomed to turning the throttle off forcefully every time. It merely adds tension, it does not lock the throttle. You can also set it while riding, with one hand. It turns on in the direction of adding throttle, and off in the direction of getting out of the throttle. If you slide your hand a bit off the grip, and grab the TM with your pinkie, it will come on or off as you twist the throttle. You may have to practice letting your hand slip on the grip a little, or take a few adjustments, to get it all the way on...about a quarter turn. As an alternative, you can wait until you are off the throttle for a second, and just slide your right hand outward to adjust it. It sounds complicated, but is actually quite natural and easy. I think there is a video on the Throttlemeister site that shows it in action.How do you set the TM while you are riding. Is it a two handed operation?

I meant to say that the ends were hollowed out. Sorry to mislead anybody.The NMN bars are not hollow. The bar stock is solid T6061.
However we have had the ends milled out far enough to work with these throttle units as we had people ask for this in the design long ago.
Many people use the risers and the Throttle Meister together. I did a few installs of risers in Daytona with Throttle Meisters and had no issues at all. :thumbup:
