[mattyg1405]

ok im trying to raise the handlebars on my srx...and i cannot figure out how high i could go without extending everything...would 2-3/4" be too high?? and if so where can i find extended cables??? both oil and throttle, and brake?? thanks in advance...

I just installed a 3 inch riser on mine and the cables are fine. I don't have the airbox back in yet, but there seems to be plenty of slack in the cables. I turned the bars all the way left and right. If you want to check it out before buying, just remove your bars and insert a block of wood between the bars and mount to see what the cables do.

I have a 3 inch riser on my 98 srx and all I had to do was move the master brake cylinder in towards center a half inch This gives the clearance for your hyd line

Usually 2" is max but all depends on how the bars are positioned and type of riser used.If you want risers or longer cables etc. i sell all that stuff.

I think a 3" rise would be "stretching" it on stock cables + brake line. I have a 3" riser on my 2002 SRX as well as both the 99 SXs. I went with longer oil + throttle cables as well as a longer braided brake line, this allows me to position the bars without worrying about cable issues.

I bought a tall riser and then measured how high my particular setup allowed me to go. You can just cut the aluminum riser on your miter box saw providing you have a carbide tipped blade. I might dd that we did two sleds from the same riser and saved $$. What can i say, I'm cheap!

I agree had a 2" and it was tight, but I also rotated the bars up
