These bar risers deserve their own appraisal. The price is just a little above ‘budget’ but the quality is very good. They’ve been designed and manufactured with pride – and intelligence, with the range of spacers provided you can customise to the exact bar height you want.

This worked so well on the Honda CRF250L. For all-day standing on the pegs slow-speed trail-use a height of 25mm (1-in) is perfect. But for days when you anticipate riding faster, using primarily standing attack and then sitting, then dropping out one spacer and riding at 22mm (3/4-in) is a nice compromise. If you’re going to commute on the bike for a solid week, then set them at the lowest – no spacers – is perfect for maximum-comfort sitting. It’s that added flexibility that adds value and makes these a better choice than just using one-height risers. The finish is top notch and there are two lengths of bolts supplied, which set you use depends on the height you choose. Seriously intelligent kit.
