Anybody had any experiance with these http://www.helibars.com/proddetail.php?prod=HB6003They raise the bats up 1 5/8" and back a little too. They seem like a good idea for longer trips to your not leaning forward as much.My years or wide open racing and tucking in tight are in the past.
Please let me know, I've searched around and I haven't seen much about them.

Thanks in advance.

 

Not sure. I have seen some clip ons that are adjustable to rotate back and higher but not as high as you are stating. I hear you on the tucking...I'm 36 and a cruiser is something I may look at in the not to distant future.

 

I'm with you on the age , I love the bike but a more upright postion would make it more comfatable.

 

Definitely do a search on clips on that are adjustable. PVM I believe have one. Every half an inch counts in comfort. Also, I noticed that the CBR seat is harder than my 636 seat which I shaved down and recovered. Try that it helped in the comfort level though for long rides of 120+ it became a pain after 100 miles. The CBR seat is so hard I ordered another one from ebay and am going to shave it down or replace with something soft but thin.

 

I'm going to order some and give em a shot. I rode 130+ miles today and my wrists ached .I think just a 1" lift will help alot, I will report my findings.

 

I'm 48 and nowhere near a cruiser. I also cycle, mountain bike and do the gym 6 days a week. *shrugs*

I love my RR, and the 1098s is next.

 

I am fortunate. The CBR fits me perfectly and I can ride all day long with no pain. I take the bike routinely for a 450 mile ride with Cortech bags. Sort of a ultra performance sport touring bike! PS I am far from being in great physical shape.

 

I just turned 40 and love the RR more and more than cruisers i rode.Using my lower body, core, legs and hips takes off pressure on my wrists and back. I become one with the bike regarding its position.
The f4i would be a better choice for riders who dont like the aggressive angle on the RR.
