As a new FJR owner I am continuing to consider the farkles that will make my ride safer or more enjoyable. I've done various things already, including mirror extenders, frame sliders, and canyon cages for the side cases. The persistent question remaining is whether I want to do bar risers.
I realize this is a perennial topic, but my interests are not in what type to use or how to install them. I've read many threads here on risers and if you start a thread on risers the people that chime in typically have risers
.
I'm interested in what % of FJR riders out there actually use riders? And if so, how tall they are?
I am finding that if my riding form is lazy, I put too much pressure on my hands and that's not great. But if I remember to do my Master Yoda riding style and use my leg and torso muscles to hold myself up, then I am quite comfortable with the standard bar position, which I have already moved to it's forward most position.
If I knew how to do a poll, I would do it on this. Simply do you use them or not. I've not been able to find that thread anywhere. And do people who do not use them find that it requires them to be correct in their posture, and like it that way?
Cheers
