Reviving a very old thread, I bought the 22mm risers as discussed, simple job to fit, looking forward to testing the new handlebar position on a longer ride. ..however...there didn't seem any way to fit the covers back on without stress and also, position the ignition in a place that I could realistically get the key to fit. I decided to leave the covers off...
Maybe I've done something odd but any advice or photo appreciated.
Cheers

You have done nothing odd, the standard cover will no longer fit. The police model cover may work as they came with raised bars.

So at what age does this "old enough to know better" kick in?

Oh...that's interesting...might give me a better chance of sourcing one maybe?
Did a couple of days riding after Christmas and the risers were excellent...

Ok so it looks like locating a set of the taller handlebar covers for my bike with the new risers is not going to be easy so I've added a cover to the steering tube. I've also added the quadlock mount which is a brilliant bit of gear.
Too bloody hot to ride at the moment however...

Mine's an ex police - 2002 - and no stock bar risers it would seem or special cover to suit , alas when I put risers on I chopped off the top of the cover to allow access to the key. Exposes the triple tree and gives it a bit of more a motorbike look too I thought.

I've just added bar risers to 2000 ex police, and the bar holding the side covers fouls on the risers. Going to have to do some revision of bar position!
