It was like a big scoop for love bugs and a pain to take the filter out and clean!
It had nothing to do with how it ran!
Do your gauges bother you sitting up the way they do? I put risers on mine and the gauges bothered me,sitting almost straight up! I bought a barn door handle for $5 and made a new mount to drop them down and change the angle.

Your idea sounds great, if I could only see the pic. Maybe because I am a new member?

Did not like them at all at first, have since gotten used to them but would still like them tilted back a bit. Unfourtenatly I cant use different risers because the bars would hit the tank .

I think the stock risers are only 1 or 2 inch! I put 4" on! Up 3" and back 1" and did not need new cables. I cut the zip ties for the wires and pulled them enough! The clutch cable was good! The throttle cables were good but would have liked a tad more slack! The brake line,I had to bend the steel tubing a little to get a comfortable length! Go easy on the brake line so it doesn't crimp!

Ace hardware! Like this,but with one screw hole in each end! I cut about an inch or so out of the center. Drilled 5/16 inch holes,painted them black and got the result I was looking for. I think it was a 6" or 7" barn door handle. The link didn't work! Google barn door handle and you'll see what it is!
