I am looking for a riser not for rising but for approaching the handlebar closer to me. My arms are too short. This is for a Roctane.
Where to find this ?
Thanks
 
Thanks but this is essentially a riser.
I don’t want to rise. I want to make the handle bar closer.
In first picture, the configuration of the Roctane.
In second picture, what I would like to find. ( set on my BMW R1200C indépendant).
Thanks…
 
Where the pictures

Thank you.
It’s a great info. I did not know this brand. Very useful for my fellow riders too!
I hope they have distributors in France or in Europe.
I should find what I need !
Thanks again.

Hi Patricia
One thing to be aware of. Depending on how far back you want the bars to be, you may need extended brake & clutch cables also.
My risers throw the bars back around 32mm (1,1/2") My cables are only just long enough for this.

Yes, I know. I had to do it on my R18 Classic.
But it looks like not an issue on a Roctane. I checked with the BMW vendor…, even after the addition of the windshield and additional lights of the Classic. All lines are long enough.
I think that around 2 or 2,5 cm will be enough for me….
Thanks.
