Ok which works the best, easiest to install, need to get some by next thurs, any board sponser got em..??? and do they really make that much difference, I had gotten use to my bike about 3000 miles, then I lowered the rear 2'' and ever since (about 500 miles) my wrist have been killing me after only about 50 miles. I thought lowering the rear would have help some, not sure what going on... also if Genmar is the way to go, which ones the 3/4 or 1 1/4
? help!!!!!
need some more advice

I've had the 1 1/4" GenMar riser on my Busa for two years now. It makes a big difference on long rides.
However, lowering the rear and adding risers won't do much to help your wrists. You need to fix your riding posture. Your weight should be carried by your legs, back, and abdomen, not your arms, wrists, and hands.

yeah the Genmars are looking like the cheaper and quicker... still taking more advice.......
or you could run them both.
if i had to choose one it would be the heli bars

hey now thats sounds like a good price where can i find those at?
i just installed the 1.25 genmar risers and did the buell footpeg mod last saturday on my new 06. for me it made the difference between not being able to ride my new busa and being able to ride. feels great now. i am very satisfied. i struggled with the same questions you're having right now. heli-bars,genmar risers, a combination of both. finally decided to just go with the 1.25 genmar risers to maintain the integrity of the "sport bike" look as much as possible. i've seen some pics of bars that look like "ape hangers" on a busa and i didn't want to go there. the 1.25 genmar risers alone look good and work great as far as i'm concernered. if it's not enough you can always go to one of those ape hanger configurations like convertibars until you get it "right". try the genmar risers first-my advice.
I notice on your pic on another post you had a double bubble, did you have any clearance problems with the factory windscreen when you put on the Genmar?
The brake reservoirs clear the DB, but if you have your thumb resting on the on/off switch, it's gonna get pinched.
I took off about an inch on both sides of the shield, just in case. Cuz I'm clumsy like that.
*edit: Oh duh.. you asked about the factory shield. I had the DB on before I did the Genmar, so I don't know about the factory shield. Sorry.
Ok, Genmar, anybody know if there is any clearance problems to the factory windscreen?
OK, any board sponsers sell Genmar's? if so phone number please, ready to order!!!!!!
Uh anybody know a board sponser that sell's these, credit card burn hole in pocket!!!!
OK couldnt wait, bought straight from the factory, thanks for all of the help and advice
, will post pics when they come in next tuesday, thanks again...
