Rox Risers & Solex Bars

I think there may already be a review of these up but here is my review.



I purchased my set of Rox Risers back in February of 08. I bought the 3.5 Risers with the standard 7/8 bar clamps and then adapt to 1 1/8" bars. When I first received the risers and bars I noticed the packaging was excellent. Once I opened everything up I noticed the quality of these products is extremely good.


I now have had my risers for awhile and put a good 1000 miles of riding on them and they have been awesome. The bars have a much more comfortable bend and allows for a more sporty riding stance. The finish on the bars and risers is still as good as it was when i first received them!


The stock set up on my Grizzly was a bit too far forward for me. I rode up on front of the seat and almost on the gas tank most of the time. With my Rox Risers positioned back a bit I am not longer riding on the gas tank. My butt is positioned more in the middle of the seat. This little difference goes a long way.




Ride On Cool,
Mack

Cool beans dude! I couldn't agree with you more. I've got the risers on mine and everything you said (minus 900 miles) is right on point with how I feel.

hey guys... I have an 08 Grizz and I have been contemplating risers.
I am 6'2" 200 but the stock setup seems pretty comfy to me but I have never felt any custom risers.
The one thought of mine is, do the stock cables and wires all work with the risers ?
how much rise can you do before that becomes an issue?

Yes, the stock cables work fine with the risers. About 5" is the maximum rise you will be able to get with the 5" risers and a ATV CR-1 Handlebar. This particular positions puts everything about at stock height. The gain in my opinion is a more natural hand and arm position.
