GL1800 Handlebar Riser Shims

AJ and his crew installed these today. Rode 75 miles home. I'm 6'4" and always felt the bars were too far away, and felt pressure in my shoulders on long rides. These risers fixed it! No more feeling pressure or feeling the bars were too far away. Very comfortable now, hooray! This is a "must do" for any serious cruisers.
Checked out the other risers, felt the grips may hit my legs or tank on max turns.

These may work for some people, but they didn't work for me with only the one position option. I sent these back and ordered the Kuryakyn brand handlebar risers that have a variety of position options in one kit.

I just returned from a 100 day, 15,000 mile tour around the US http://www.darnton.ws/~USA_2009_Motorcycle_Tour/) with these risers, and have used them for 25,000 miles so far. Simply put, these risers are inexpensive and do the job, so why pay more? They are essential for long-legged riders such as myself, because without them the clutch and brake handles contact your thighs at full lock in a low-speed turn, and when that happens you and the bike fall over. This only happens once, because after that you always take your inside foot off the peg in a tight turn. Not a very good technique, the DMV would flunk you. Get these risers, and unless you're REALLY tall that won't happen again. (I like being big, but there are times when I envy you smaller riders!) I must warn you that the installation is absolutely maddening (I have big hands; see above), but that's Honda's fault, not the risers'. The instructions are just barely adequate. Good luck with it. Try to find someone at your local GWRRA chapter to help who's removed the dash panels before. The speakers have to come out of their mounts too, which is easy only if you know how that works (I didn't, but I learned). I lost three screws in the process (they're down inside somewhere, and after a trip to my Honda dealer I replaced 'em), but I got it done. Still five stars, because none of these problems are related to the shims themselves.

great Product easy to install. makes a big differnce in handlebars.

Does what you want to do for a lot less.
