The 3” risers feel better to me than the above 4” risers.
They also look beefier.
So now once again I got it right the second time, oops.

The poly risers don’t seem to have anymore vibration
than the stock rubber ones so far as I can tell.

Same here on the poly bushings, I didn't notice no difference.

I have the same 4 inch risers on my bike!! I have been thinking of going back to the stock risers and new bars but now I think I will go the same route as you did. I like the beefier look and it will be better on the check book.

Thanks for posting that, twofish. Those risers look nice and flow better than your previous ones.
