I think they look silly with Loner risers,
just use bars 1 or 2 inches taller instead.
Fewer parts/bolts is better.

That wont help. The problem is some bars will hit the tops of the forks.

can't you loosen the trees and slide the forks down just enough to clear the bars?

I have already installed drag bars with the stock triple tree and it they installed fine. The shortest you can go is right in the 29-30 range. If you are having problems, I am guessing the front turn signals are either in the way (I took mine off) or you need to lower the forks a little so they are not sticking out top the triple tree so much.
