    Handlebar risers

    Has anybody fitted any handlebar risers. My bad left shoulder is taking a bit of a battering. Gilles have some I see but very little information provided. Is it an easy fit or do we need to extend cables etc.

    Hi from Matlock Bath

    Heya folks, newbie rider here looking to upgrade from my tiny CBR125R to an MT-07 next year once I pick up my A2 licence. If you haven't visited my home town already - do so, the roads around here are fantastic! Via Gellia, the Cat & Fiddle and Snake Pass all within easy reach. Shit's magical.
