Brake lines etc with Bar Risers

[Gpr1200r]

I have the Genmar 1 1/4" risers and had to install longer lines. The front wheel was hanging from the stock lines if I lifted the front end off the ground. Not good for wheelies.

I'm looking at the same mod. Have Helis now but thinking of rotating them back and adding the 1.250 Genmars. How much longer are you current lines and were there any throttle cable issues? Thanks.

Troppo - the helibar site has a chart that will tell you if you need extended brake lines when they are added to a bike. Generally speaking, Helibars only added to stock bike can still utilize the stock brake lines.

However, as soon as you go more than 1" up or back - you should also calculate new braided lines into your mod budget.

You are doubling up on the mods: riser + helibars = new extended brake lines.

Super simple buy now for overlength brake lines - few clicks and done.

Good basic info to be safe although I am surprised that the board does not have a sticky in regards to aftermarket risers or combo of same and minimum cable specs for said mod. Just my 2 cents.
