So I get a set of risers and installed them yesterday. Wasn't very happy with the position of the clutch cable (or crushing my pinky loosening the stock bolts) and after riding up and down the street and having the clutch act all kinds of unhappy when the bars are turned full lock to the right, immediately took them back off. I was going to put them back up for sale, but then started thinking about getting a different (longer) clutch cable. Thing is though, I can't find anything saying how long the stock one is, much less lengths of any others. Anyone have any ideas?
I had read somewhere that someone had re-routed the stock cable behind the triples and that just makes it worse, the cable won't even reach the perch that way.
On the right side, taking the brake hose out of the guide was all that was needed there.
If I can figure out a different cable, then I just need to figure out how to rotate the levers down. The clutch safety switch hits the riser on the left, and the brake MC hits on the right. A grinder and some touch up paint should resolve those issues though.
