I installed a pair of Genmar bar risers this evening. What a simple install it was and it raised the bars 3/4 of an inch. It doesn't sound like a lot, but what a difference.

Glad you're happy. It can make quite a difference especially if you have back or shoulder problems, too.

Yep...When I get the spare 100 bucks I think this is the way I'm gonna go to. I have tried the bars up the 3/4 inch higher without the risers on and find it a nice change. A simple install for not much coin.

I simply don't understand. I had them but they made my hands go numb. I have no idea what the 'F' with that.

Old age HA! OK! I'm with that. Those young women seam to move faster these days. I don't even try to catch them any more.LOL
