Anyone try double stacking Gen Mar risers for a little extra height and comfort? Did it work or am I wasting time and money?

I did double genmar risers on my 98 Trophy 1200. Huge improvement! You will need a longer front brake line though. I heard the handlebars might hit the windsheild. They do not hit the windsheild on the standard '98 windsheild. Now I don't have to do a handstand while going down the road. I just don't like to lean forward.

I bought a 99 Thunderbird and even put the biggest risers I could find for it to lean back even more. I like the seating position on it better except the pegs are closer to the seat.

The trophy is now for sale.

If you are making you own, I should point out that the cylinder that goes in the center of the risers should be one solid piece on double risers. that will give you more stability than 2 single pieces. The longer front brake line you will need is from the master cyliner to where they split on the forks. The choke cable will get pretty tight only. Mine hasn't given me any problems, but I should get a longer one. Good Luck.
