Ya, I bought a set of 3.5 inch risers to put under my apes (so I could try taller bars on the cheap). With the angle of the forks, the bottom of the bars is set back about an inch. Liked the extra height, but didnt like the extra pullback or the looks of apes under a tall riser. Looks like youre trying to get away with something.

The shorter apes like your look ok like that. The extensions look like theyre crafted nicely!

They were $70 and come in 1" and 2" lenghths.......I dont see any reason he couldn't make em longer though; it would just require longer bolts.....

I can't find the link but you can send him a PM from the site though.....
