I don't know what it is about those risers, but I'm just not feelin' it. Maybe the hight, maybe the curve, maybe a combination of the 2, but they just don't seem to "fit" the look of the rest of the bike.

good thing i dont post what i think about carbon fiber in your build thread.:woohoo:
tell me what you like, and ill change it....just cause i wanna make you happy.:lol: oh wait, my opinion is the only one that really matters.
it does make the bike look a lil shorter, but i plan on spreading the wheelbase before its all said and done.
i knew i wanted the straight bar look, not the pullback on the bar, so i knew i would need a pullback riser. i wasnt sure if these would do the job. its perfectly comfortable for me. i got lucky.
ill be able to ride longer with the comfort also. when i had the short clamps on i was putting a lot of weight on my wrists. not anymore.

You are right about everything except one thing Joe: your opinion isn't the one that matters, it's your baby momma's opinion that matters :kiss: Haven't you learned that by now? As you know, you are free to express your opinion about any part of my build. If you hate how my carbon fiber looks :sick: by all means, speak up!

i have to agree with Adam. they look too Harleyish. but once u get all the rest of the front together they may not stand out so much.
I know u didnt want to here this Stu, but what help could we possibly be, if we all agreed with everything the poster said.
and i also agree with your statement , that your opinion is the only 1 that counts. so does that mean i'm on the fence. lol
Still, 1 very cool ride.

That bike does look good Joe. Craig, are you itchin' for some more action or something? You're the first one to point out that KZR shouldn't be all back pats and lip service. A good friend will speak up if something looks wrong or out of place. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And when you're building a custom, all the beauty that matters is what the man with the check book thinks. At the same time though, it is just as criminal to keep your mouth shut when something is wrong as if you were directly involved in the wrong doing. I was just speaking up. Sure Joe, do what you want, it's all you.

Ya I think once you put a head light and controls on Joe it will look good,If not change it Hell that is part of the process trying different things, if everyone did the same thing you might as well keep it stock,and we all know stock sucks.
