FAQs

Will these risers require longer cables?

It depends on your specific motorcycle model and how your cables are routed. A 20mm rise may necessitate longer brake lines, clutch cables, or throttle cables on some bikes. It's recommended to check clearances before installation or consult your motorcycle's manual.

Are these risers suitable for off-road riding?

While they can improve comfort, their primary design is for road use. For aggressive off-road riding, consider the impact on handling and potential need for reinforced components.

What is the material of these risers?

The product description does not specify the exact material, but they are constructed from durable materials suitable for motorcycle accessories.

How do I clean the handlebar risers?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the black finish.

Can I install these myself?

Installation requires basic mechanical knowledge and tools. If you are uncomfortable with modifying your motorcycle controls or are unsure about cable lengths, it is best to have them installed by a qualified mechanic.

Will this affect my motorcycle's warranty?

Modifying your motorcycle with aftermarket parts may affect your manufacturer's warranty. It is advisable to check your warranty terms or consult your dealer.

Troubleshooting

Handlebars feel unstable after installation.

Re-check and tighten all handlebar clamp bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque. Ensure the risers are seated correctly.

Brake lines or control cables are too short.

You will need to purchase and install longer brake lines and/or control cables. Consult a professional if unsure.

Risers do not fit the mounting points.

Verify that you have the correct model risers for your motorcycle. Some bikes may require specific adapter kits not included.

Uneven handlebar height or angle.

Ensure the handlebars are centered in the clamps and that the risers are installed evenly. Retighten bolts symmetrically.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Preparation: Ensure you have the necessary tools, including wrenches and potentially cable/hose extension kits if required.
  2. Handlebar Removal: Carefully loosen and remove the handlebar clamps and the handlebars from the triple tree.
  3. Riser Installation: Place the Oxford Handlebar Risers onto the triple tree mounting points. Re-attach the handlebars, ensuring they are centered.
  4. Clamp Tightening: Securely tighten the handlebar clamps, following the manufacturer's torque specifications for your motorcycle.
  5. Cable/Hose Check: Verify that all control cables (throttle, clutch) and brake lines have sufficient slack and are not binding. If they are too short, extensions will be necessary.
  6. Final Check: Test the handlebars for full range of motion and ensure all controls function correctly.

Compatibility:

While designed for general use, it is crucial to verify compatibility with your specific motorcycle model. Check your bike's service manual or consult a professional if unsure about cable lengths and clearance.

Care:

  • Clean the risers with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the black finish.
  • Periodically check that the handlebar clamp bolts remain tight.
