Message: <blockquote data-quote="yardflier" data-source="post: 1343263" data-attributes="member: 90055">What an awesome piece of hardware and what a company!Ordered the MV Motorrad riser from the manufacturer Wednesday morning at 10 AM and had it in my hands, in New Jersey, Friday at 2 PM! Heck, There aren't many places, other than Revzilla, that get ordered stuff to me that fast.I installed it on my 2013 in about an hour, thanks to this thread. Easy job with the only slightly "challenging" step installing the spacer for the brake lines. Just a little fiddly, that's all. Saturday afternoon I left on a ride that went for 493 miles over 25 hours.  all I can say is WOW! what a difference. I have suffered from neck pain while riding. The new riding position took that away. Approximately 10 hours on the bike and my neck got just a little bit tight, nothing like the searing pain I would get after about 1-2 hours riding before.I managed to get the riser installed in the rearmost position available for the handlebars without any trouble. Half the Yamaha emblem is visible in front of the riser. My riding position is now much more upright with arms hanging in a relaxed manner. Much more comfortable than the locked elbows position prior to the riser.  I also notice less effort required in slow speed handling. The extra leverage provided  makes a surprisingly  favorable difference in the effort required to move the handlebars at slow speeds or when stopped.Best $220 I've spent in a long time.</blockquote>
