Phat 1x Risers

Sin City Stan · 08-24-2009, 08:38 PM

A sore left shoulder blade led me to installing risers. The Phat 1x risers are designed for the 1700 Nomad. Took about an hour to install with most of the time R&R the windshield and lowers.

As can be seen there is plenty of clearance. The only thing I had to change was the front brake line which had to be routed outside of the tree.

I have tilted the bars about a half inch lower since the pics and they feel great now. I took the pics before I put the windshield back on for clarity.

2" Lift with a 2" pull back.

I installed the Phat 1x Risers about two weeks ago.

Being only 5'7", I had trouble with turning the handlebars all the way to the left or right. It's now a lot easier. They also make just riding down the road much more comfortable.

Anyone who thinks they may need them; don't think twice about it. Just order a set and you won't regret it.
