Debi Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I am a short lady who loves this bike, but it is uncomfortable for more than a couple hour ride because I have to reach to have my hands hit the handle bars. Neck issues if I ride longer. I am close to the blue ridge parkway and want to be able to ride more comfortably next spring. Any suggestions? The riser that looked like it would work, the Rox model 650342. I was told it is no longer made and that Rox is out of business (I was talking to Revolution Power Sports). My 2013 Yamaha Custom Deluxe Touring bike has the fairing and the handle bars go through the speedometer mount. I've added 2 inches to my seat, but still can't reach correctly. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Debi in Georgia, USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lallasro Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 why you don`t change the handlebars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarke Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Bit late in seeing this but RSTD bars are a popular swap on the XVS1300 to bring them closer to the rider. 1300tourer.com has a fantastic guise on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
