Scootworks riser extenders

Not an exciting mod but thought I would share in case someone might be considering these. I could not get new risers because the tach needs oem bolt pattern.

I'm surprised you got them. I don't know how many people have been left hanging by scootsworks.

Same here. Ordered the Phat 1x from value accessories, cheaper than scootworks and got them in a few days...

Maybe they finally smartened up and realised the word was getting out.

In 2011, when I first bought my Nomad, I received great service from them. I think they went thru a period of time when they had some problems. They seem to have all together again now. Even the best businesses sometimes have problems. I would buy from them again.

The tripletree is on a angle, so as you go up they also come back towards ya.

I made a set of risers for my nomad and I didn't like the way the bars turned my wrist in. As the bars come up and back it changes the angle of your wrists on the bars. So I went with bars instead. More money and work but way more comfortable.
