Handlebar risers needed.
« on: August 20, 2020, 06:03:53 PM »
I’ve ridden the Stone enough now to know I need the bars to be back a couples more inches and maybe a little higher also.  Can anyone tell me what company makes these for an 02 Stone or does anyone have a set they don’t need and want to sell. Or maybe a swap for a set off a Calvin? Thanks in advance.

I have a pair of APE Racing pivoting risers that I’m selling. The advantage to them is being able to set the handlebar up, back, toward, etc. Bought them recently to try out on my V7, but I’m getting non-pivoting that are just a tad lower. I’ll send them to you for $35

Just put a set of these on my Bobber Sport and really like them. I tried the solid. one piece "Bar Back" type and they did not fit. The holes were too close. Might want to measure yours and make sure they will fit before you buy.

Assuming I have my measurements correct, the ‘02 Stone is 30mm at the clamps? The APE Racing pivot risers (along with the Rox Risers, I believe) fit either 7/8” or 1.125” (30mm) with the spacers removed.

When I had my 02 Stone, one of the obsolete boards had a post on using deep sockets, filled with lock washers.  You used longer bolts of course, the sockets filled with interlocking washers was placed between the the triple tree and the handle bar clamp.  The sockets were placed with the socket part resting around the raised portion of the triple tree.  I don't recall if they were 3/8" or 1/2".
I did it, raised the bars and brought them back just enough for me.
I checked them often at first, then maybe once a year.
Worked well.
