Anyone got bar risers on their SXR 700? I was wondering if you had to switch the cables and how it was for trail riding? I was thinking of going with a 3in riser? Any suggestions?
i think you can only 2 inch max are so it is on my viper my mom has a sxr 700 and the cables seem the same.
i would recommend a cable change as your pushing the limits. dont know that you would like a taller bar setup for trail riding unless your an extremely tall rider. you will have better control with the bars at a lower setting for high speed trail runs.

All depends on how tall you are. I put a 3.5" riser on my Viper and I love it, now I need to order one for my SRX... I am 6'3" and a 3.5 is nice, lil taller might be nice but I do most riding sitting down and anything taller would look goofy, IMO. I am not sure about the SXR's, but I had to get longer cables for my riser and it looks like I will need different ones for the SRX for sure.

I've been looking for longer cables, only found them at h.p.e is there any other source? (dual cable and brake line for srx)
stock yamaha cables from an 03 mountain viper. richmotorsports(site sponsor)can hook you up, as well as other site vendors. the powermadd from hpe clearly state not recommended for yamaha. another quality source is gravityworxs.
