I just installed a set of Skyking risers on my Daytona 955I and I am not so sure I like them. I only rode a few miles with them so it could be just a matter of geting used to them. I feel like maybe they are a bit to tall. The bike seems a bit harder to hold in the turn like maybe I lost some leverage on the bars. Has anyone else had this experiance with risers? With the weather we have moving in it will be at least a week till I can put a few more miles on her. Thanks for your input.

They will feel different for a while, I swapped back and forth a few times then sold the risers. I prefer the stock position I just had to prove it to myself a few times :-D
