magnatic Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 As Helibars don't yet manufacture their product for the Tracer, I appreciate recommendations for risers that raise the and bring it back to the rider. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred99 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I'm interested in some also and emailed Rox to see if anything was in the works and his reply was that they haven't had a bike in yet to work on it and from feedback from owners it doesn't look to promising because of the cables and wires being too tight. There was a thread on here with a pic of somebody that fitted a Tusk riser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harraseeket Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 wondering if instead of heli bars or some such, has anybody used a different set of bars that would bring grips closer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gv550 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Above is the 15mm Tusk riser. It's meant for KTM so doesn't match the profile but can't see that when riding. Stock cables and no problem. 2019 Tracer GT, Ontario, Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred99 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Yes the 15MM for 1 1/8 bars. I would have preferred the 30MM but didn't think there would be enough slack in the cables/wires to make them work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gv550 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I found mine on ebay last year, $21 with free shipping at the time. Universal Powersports LLC was the vendor. Just search Tusk Handlebar riser Kit, select 1 1/8 bars and 15 mm rise. 2019 Tracer GT, Ontario, Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred99 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Just a headsup Tracerdoc. It's a little tricky to hold the bars up while sliding the both sides underneath and then lining the bars back up just right. It would be so much easier if you had a friend hold them up for you. I had one side on but putting the other side on I "bumped' the first one and it fell down into the black hole of the engine and thought I was screwed. Got a flashlight and got so lucky with a thin blade long screwdriver and fished it so carefully out by sliding the the blade into the bolt hole. It's not a hard job but due to me age and neurpathy in my hands, I'm all thumbs anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
