Yeah, that's was mine, before the KR. Someone on this bd. bought it last month. Now it's time to trade for a RT!

I have these SW Motech risers on my Rockster, they did make a big difference to all day riding comfort for me.

Installed a set of the Moto-Techniques with the modified 1" rise and 1 1/4" setback. Easy and quick. Takes the strain off of your wrists. Great addition to my Rockster.

The Moto tech ones look the same as the ones I have 1" up 1"1/4 back.. Got them from Nippy Normans UK site.. Great service /good price..

Re: Handlebar risers?
I fitted these adjustable risers from mv motorrad technic , they look good and no changes to cables or hoses required,
just done 1000 mile round trip to dragon rally last week and the riding position is now perfect with no weight on wrists/arms , a big improvement ,see link below .

1 inch risers from Wunderlich really helped my ergonomics. Relieved excess tension in back and shoulders, without losing the sport-touring posture.
