Handlebar Risers on Vulcan Voyager
I have just installed 2 inch risers on my 2015 Vulcan Voyager 1700 handlebars. If any of you who, like me, have shoulder and upper back pain when riding, do not hesitate to install these 2 inch risers. They change everything.
I have no more pain in shoulders or upper back and, I am very comfortable now. I measure 5 feet 10 inches. This has made all the difference. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

1700 Vulcan Voyager handlebar risers
The 2 inch risers that I installed on my 2015 Voyager were purchased from Chuksters. Low price and great quality. They were shipped out same day and received them shortly after.

Chucksters is a great person to deal with. I worked with him when he developed the extended brake and shifter for my Voyager, You will not find anyone better out there.

I had the risers on my Nomad and they were perfect. Now I have the Vaquero with the fairing. Would there be any problems with the bars hitting on full lock mode. Anyone with a Vaquero have installed these and any problems? Thanks in advance

Ive have chucksters risers on my 15 vaquero for 3 years now. If you position the bars too far forward on the risers they will hit the dash. when I installed mine I turned the forks full lock to the left and set the bars a quarter of an inch away from the dash then tightened down the clamps. this way you can still lock the bars and still have enough lift to stop the shoulder pain when on road trips or extended rides. this works for me.

i have a 12 in. kawasaki windshield since the bike was new but thinking of going with a small clearview for the next one. also DO NOT over tighten the bolts for the bar clamps or the clamps will break. I tightened down the top bolts first then used a tourque wrench on the bottom bolts. I think the tourque specs are in the service manual. my bars have stayed tight since I installed them 3 years ago.

Thanks for the info rozie. Reason I was asking about is I have the 12 inch clearview with the curve.

how do you like the clearview? did you get the vent too or is it not necessary with the 12 in. screen? i heard that the vent is out of stock for 6 to 8 weeks.

Hey Roxie. I have the 12 inch Clearview without the vent. I didn't feel I needed it. This is the best windshield I have ever had. Well worth the money.
