Default To raise or not to raise?

Has anyone had any experience with handle bar raisers on a CBR1000F? Are they safe to use? Do they improve comfort or affect handling?

Hi:
I have heli bars with a 3" rise for a VFR on my bike and it made a big difference in comfort for me. I was having some problems on long rides
with the stock bars and this eliminated them.

I also have Heli bars. Best mod you can do for comfort. Saves your wrists and back. Better than the $600 I paid for a corbin saddle.
