I can honestly say they are worth the money did just under 100 miles today and not a sore hand/wrist at all everything else does though

You have given me a peace of mind, 100 miles are quite a lot, for us here its like going round our tiny island Malta for two times if not more, thanks mate.

We ran into some little problems with installing these items onto the curvy s.
Fully up the throttle side gets the kill switch touching the windshield on full lock. We've had to shave off some of the perspex. Also, in order to replicate the Original's angle which is the most comfortable, the left hand side clip-on fastening screw started touching the tank! So I made a sort of 'U' bracket from aluminum to add more to the frame's steering lock point. All done it certainly looks the business and the bars look very high quality. Looks sort of a little VFR Pitty it starting raining hard tonight, so going out for a test ride was ruled out. Hopefully tomorrow will be nicer weather. Simon's supposed to upload some pictures and details. I'm done, goodnight guys.

post a pic as id like to see how youve done it compared to mine as i didnt have to shave anything of the bike just had to make a s bracket for the cable running down to the front wheel as it raised its original

Ah but remember that you've got a pointy and my brother a curvy. It seems that a pointy is kinder to clip-on alterations as the front fairing is a bit higher and more forward than curvy's. Took it for a ride today and said it feels great on the back but needs some getting used to. More miles and we'll see how he likes them then. I'm guessing they're there for good. Maybe I should cut out a sticker for him, SVFR
Lower footpegs next Simon?

Update 19/03/07:
We spent a whole day running about today and Simon let me ride the bike and let me tell you it feel great. Suzuki should put the risers as an option and forget all about the vstrom, the SV looks loads better.

Regarding the windscreen problem I thought of posting this picture to show the alteration we had to make in order to avoidmit hitting the bars on full extension.

I'd like to buy the plastic choke lever as I filed the original a bit too enthusiastically so as not to hit the windscreen. I guess I should post this in the WANTED section, or maybe just buy it new. Well if you're reading this and broke your bike to sell as spares contact me.
