the non pivoting riser will come up 2", but probably at you 1" since it stays in line with the stem. well, maybe not 1", but the rising angle forces the bars at you.
 
damnn was asleep when purolator delivered today...so im gettin them delivered to my moms work but will only be there for thursday...but lets say i decide to get the rox mounts..is there a place in canada i can order from? because ordering from the states take a longggggggg time
 
by the way lets say i get the 2 inch riser will i be uncomfortable when trail riding? i dont want it to be like one of those chopper harleys lol..hopefully it wont be too high up...il get 2 inch anyways since over the next summer il be convertins to a 136" track for mountain riding

I put the 2" on my sled last season. You get used to it very quickly, with the added benefit of not being bent over as far when standing. I went to 4" this year and had to buy cables. I tried the cheap 2" to see if I'd like it. It really depends on how tall you are. I'm 6 feet.
 
im 5 foot 6 but im mainly just concerned on how it will feel when sitting down and trail riding...like how will it feel when leaning into curves and what not
 
I have a 02 Viper that I just put power madd hand guards on last night. I have a mid chrome windshield by Cobra and the hand guards are hitting the windshield. I need to get a 2 inch riser. I just dont know what kind I should get, the block or the pivot riser. Any suggestion?
