Hi Guys, I needed to post up some additional information on the Gen2 Riser install. I've now had 2 installers point out the lack of details in the instructions. This is to help those of you still haven't made the install -
The part both beta testers got stumped on was the stock base angles. Yes, You will have to loosen the OEM Post - there is no key or splined teeth, those simply "pinch" together with the 10mm nuts (14mm head size). The new RRR bases have to be parallel - else they would not articulate backwards and forwards. Please see attached image - This is the underside of the triple clamp showing the simple 14mm nuts holding the OEM post - you simply loosen them, rotate, install, and tighten those.
Here are the detailed and stepped notes Harry sent me after his successful and complete installation - Best Regards, Gordon/RTS
1. Starting with longer clutch and brake lines already installed (And Handlebars installed)
2. Loosed both of the lower 14 mm nuts about 1 turn (Break loose with small wrench … ~ 23 fl lbs torque to break loose)
3. Loosen / remove both top handlebar clams with a 6 mm hex shaft driver (Break loose … ~ 20 ft lbs)
4. Raise handlebars and use hook (Bungie Cord Works Well) to provide space to install new risers
5. Place and attach both left and right risers .. Torque lower riser front 6 mm hex / allen bolt first then rear bolt (all to 20 ft lbs)
6. Hand / Loosely tighten the 17 mm bolt / nut to keep the riser from dropping during step 7
7. Place handlebars into upper riser slots and… Torque upper front 6 mm hex / allen bolt first then rear bolt (all to 20 ft lbs)
8. Torque both the lower 14 mm nuts … to 23 ft lbs …
9. Loosen the upper riser clamp 6 mm hex / allen bolts and rotate the handlebars to the position you want (Torque when done)
10. Loosen the 17 mm bolts and move the riser back and forth / up and down to the position you want and then Torque to 60 lbs/feet and tighten the Gold lock nuts.
