Guest 90RedVFR750 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I want to get the genmar risers soon because on my hands/wrists going numb quick. I probably get uncomfortable after 45 min or so. I'm 5'9" 140 and ride a 1990 750. I was just wondering what your experiences were. Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vfrrider Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I have a set from my 93 I removed to go USD forks. If interested, I liked them sufficiently for several years. If you would like them, PM me and we'll take care of it. Larry VFRrider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enzed_viffer Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I'm just over 6 foot, and had the standard bars on my '90, and found them quite comfortable. Are you sure your numb hands/wrists aren't due to holding the 'bars too tight and/or leaning on the bars? If this is the case, even putting different bars, risers, grips etc on won't fix things. I had GenMars on my VTR1000, but that was a completely different kettle of frogs - it had low bars set too far forward and angled wrong. This wasn't rectified until 2001, IIRC. The GenMars made a significant difference - they riase the bars 19mm, and there's enough slop available between the locating pins of the bars and GenMars that there is a degree or so of fore/aft adjustment of angle possible. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VFR4Lee Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Gen Mars on my 98 helped some, and as it turned it enough, once i got used to it. Although at first I was wondering if the 1" or whatever rise would be sufficient. FWIW. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
