Anyone know of a supplier ( other than Genmar ) of affordable Bar Risers for a 1998 Trophy ?
Thanks.

I guess so. :razz: I was waiting to see if anyone else might have known of some since I didn't. I think Heli-bars used to make something, but it has been long discontinued.

Thanks, Scott :upthumb:
I have seen mention of ' Skyking ' or something, but haven't found any information.
I was thinking of risers and a Clearview high screen but I've been quoted £170 ( not dollars ) for a screen, which is a bit steep. My college attending son is cleaning me out at the moment, otherwise I would just get on and order the bits. I'll keep looking and see what I can find. Thanks for your input.
Ride safe.

I made my own. You will need machine shop to cut out the required shape, to suit the exsisting mounting bracket and handle bar mounting holes, and use a 6061 or 6063 grade aluminum and have them anodized black. You will also need to make 2 new aluminum mounting tubes to locate risers correctly. I made a 2.5" height set with a 2" set back towards rider. Works well and keeps me upright.

Finally got some Genmar risers off ebay. Seems an improvement but I am sure that Netmaker's mods would be even more beneficial. Any chance of detailed drawings Netmaker ? The pictures you mailed are excellent but it would save me precious time if I was able to work from your excellent ideas :-D

I will see what I can draw up and I will take one set off and photograph each component. Should be able to do it at the weekend.

take a look at the response to the same issue about risers, that was raised by Noel 249, and Darren made a reply on 2006-03-19 @ 14.24
Darren is evidently manufacturing a set of risers / extensions for the Triumphs and may have what you want off the shelf ? :hammer:
