Higher bars and cable routing.
Posted: Fri Aug 14, 2015 5:34 am
After a set of different bars for the Rockster, at the moment it's got the standard ones fitted to some pullback riser extension thingies. They look horrible and I don't like the looks of even the expensive options.....hence why I want to swap bars .
Ideally I'd like just a tad more hight on what I've got at present....I'm guessing there about 1" rise and 1-1/2 back...and I'm considering either GS bars or making/modifying something. With the extensions I'm using at present the cables and hydraulic lines run In front of the top yoke, looks to me if I move them behind the yoke I'll gain a bunch of length. There seems to be plenty of room between the yoke and tank, maybe it might need a cable guide fitting to the yoke to keep everything tidy. Anyone tried it? Are there any pitfalls I've not seen?
