Part #: GM-H113
Fitment:Honda CBR600 1991-current, CBR1000 1991-current, VFR750 1990-current
Jim the vfr bars I used on my 93 CBR were from a 1992 VFR not so much for extra
height more for wrist angle (not as dropped an angle).
My 1990 is next for a set.
Anything for 41mm forks will work , vortex , woodcraft to name but a few
(Note be careful earlier vfr bars were for 39mm fork tubes) FORK TUBE SIZE LINK

Thanks what is the rise on the VFR clips? I measured mine from the top of the tripple clamp to the top of the bar is 2.5". I'd like to get 3.5 - 4.0" total rise. Will the VFR's do that?

Just a hair over 3.25" ....... thing is any higher and you are into a longer
front bake line and the throttle cables start becoming an issue too.
I found it a good stretch for the front brake line with the vfr bars and I
had to dick about with the throttle as well

Another alternative...
Apex Store :: Riser Clip-ons
One neat thing about these is that you can get whatever rise you want plus the bars themselves are eccentric and at an angle, so you can adjust the lay of the bars as well as the rise. I've seen them in person, and they're slick.

As an alternitive to the Genmar risers, there are also VFR bars so they have all the dimples in the right place to make the controls stable and properly located. I just took them off my son's 90 CBR100F. They have a low to no gloss black finish. By my rough measurements, they raise the height about 2" and they pull back about 1", so the combination of the two movements is significant. I thing the Genmars only raise it 3/4" with no pull back. The pull back on these bars is caused by the handles projecting out from the center of the downtubes rather than off the front side of them like the stock handlebars do.
