Yes, a lot of money for not a lot BUT, quite easy to fit, just remember to read the instructions first, especially the bits about putting them in the fridge/freezer overnight and they are a left and a right. They are quite reassuringly heavy though. Only one short 30 mile test ride since fitting them but I think it is a more comfortable position. I was worried about them obscuring the mirrors but they don't, in fact If anything the mirror view is better. Time will tell.

I took this to my BMW dealer when I put my bike in for a service, he said the tech took two hours to put this on and that it was a pain in the arse. He didn’t charge me! However for most out there it seems this is a royal pain in the arse especially if you are not a mechanic.

Tricky to get on and off and expensive. Drastically cheaper options on ebay etc but this is a critical part of the bike so stumped up the cash. Followed a youtube video for installation tips. Top tip is to sand the paint off the end of the bars after removal - makes insertion into risers easy. Do they improve comfort - yes but early days.

Purchased these handlebar Risers after back and shoulder aching after long rides...after fitting these my seating position has changed in that I am now sat more upright so changing my position...shoulder aching is a thing of the past....the risers maybe expensive but comfort comes first....I had them fitted professionally as they are difficult to fit

They do the job well of raising the bars. Recommend watching the videos on YouTube on how to fit, this helped and made the installation easy.

Excellent service from Nippy Normans as usual. The risers a tip! The puller that comes with the risers you need longer bolts plus they need to be hardened bolts and lubricated when pulling handlebar.I stripped all my bolts and had to ship a puller from illumium works in USA if it wasn't for there help I would have been in serious trouble.once there fitted I found them to be superb its just getting the handlebar out .No issues with Nippy Normans superb.

Great product; just makes riding noticeably more comfortable, by making riding stance just a wee bit more upright. I’m not handy, so had local dealership install them for me.

"Puller" tube did the job but needed longer bolts as those supplied were too short to engage. LC models tricksy with hidden fixings - youtube saved the day - and need T8 Torx (very small). May need to brace risers with padded grips/stillsons when torque-ing up as they can move. Has improved comfort for sure. Some RTP extra switchgear wiring needs "managing". Needs reasonable competence and engineering "sense" to fit.

Nicely made item looks like I it should be there once fitted only disappointment is that you cannot angle them back due to them hitting the master cylinders a small amount of machining would overcome this.certianly made a difference to the riding position.

High quality product comes with necessary tool and clear instructions. A fiddly job to install as the controls need to be dismantled; several sizes of torx needed. Be careful to keep them vertical otherwise the hydraulic hoses will not reach at full lock.
Riding is a little more comfortable and so it should be for well over £200!

A great product. I purchased these as I found that the riding position on the new RT was too 'sporty' for me and I preferred the riding position of my previous RT. Not the easiest of things to fit but once installed they transform the bike. I'm 5' 11'' and the risers make for a much more relaxed riding position and also make the bike much more responsive to steering inputs. My only gripe is that they are a different colour to the handlebars. Apart from that - fantastic!
Easy enough to fit and makes a difference David Allonby on May 04, 2017

These are easy enough to fit so long as you lubricate to the screws you going to use to pull the bars out before you start. Do make a noticeable difference, you do feel much more upright on the bike and comfortable with it.
They can be fitted angled back a little but this is limited by the proximity of the break lever mechanism so be careful to do a test fit first before tightening up.
They are not cheap but good stuff never is...
