Advanced Sport Touring risers
« on: May 14, 2012, 08:12:20 AM »
Just installed Advanced Sport Touring risers and took Concours out for test ride. Very happy with the additional pull back from the 2" Heli risers that I had. Installation instructions were good. Did not have to alter brake or clutch lines. Click on link below for more info.

I just installed mine on Friday evening with wedges.  I only got about 45 miles of riding in on Saturday so I won't make a definitive comment just yet.  However, they did seem to eliminate the between-the-shoulder pain I was getting.  Previous set up was Phil's risers with wedges, and the RDL seat.  I did not have a problem with this set-up when using my Spencer modified stock seat.  If it ever stops raining I'll get additional seat time and be better able to tell if they made "the difference" I am looking for.

The 2 inch Heli risers bothered my upper back. I wonder if this setup would help, mind you the stock doesn't bother me to much. The Heli ST's I really like due to their flexibility of adjustments, but the price hinders my decision.
How do you find them for altering the ride/handling if any at all?

Cheers

I did not have back problem with Heli risers, but am sitting more erect and and in a more relaxed position with new risers. Initially I feel that I will get less tired on trips, due to more comfortable position. Hope this helps.
