Does anyone have Thinman risers? If so what size? I am debating between 2 5/16 inch risers and three inch risers. I really don't want to change out my cables, but if 3 inch risers do the trick then I will. I stand about 5' 11" and weight in at a bouncing 270.
Thanks in advance for the suggestions.
Mike

Mike, I swapped my stock risers for a generic 3 inch with no cable problems, since I have gone to a 6 inch riser and the stock cables are long enough so you won't have to change them.

Thanks Magdar. but after seeing your bike I realized I forgot to mention it was a C and not an R/S. Thinmann tells me that the cables on the R and S models are about two inches longer than on a C. You would think they could make this easier.
Ride safely,
Mike

Hey Mike, I have 3" Thinman and I did not have to move the cables. I have before and after pic of the install on my web site below under the "My Mods" section. There is not much differance between the 2 5/8 to the 3" lift and pullback is only about a 1/4" less. I also bought a Corbin Dual Tour whic I think put me more forward then the stock. That with the 3" thinman risers made it very comfortable for me.
