Hey, that answers my question perfectly.  Thanks Chief!

A riser is simply the piece that lifts the bars off the triple tree. Our bikes come with risers... so stock risers are there unless someone has replaced the bars with some with integral risers. Anyway, the beach bars come in difference widths. A lot of folks have installed White Bros bikini bars and Flanders Grande Beach Bars with stock risers and haven't needed to change the hoses. I think re-routing will work for bars up to about 36" in width or so. Yours may be different, and others have used wider...

Hey Chief, Thanks for the reply.

Do you mean handlebar risers?  I'm confused, because it seems like that would take up more slack.  I'm a bit new to changing out handlebars, but I twisted up my stock bars in a spill and have to change them anyway.  With all the things I have to fix, I'm not looking to change out my cables and brake line.  Are you saying you think it would be safe to try?

Thanks

With stock risers, I believe others have made 1them fit, with some re-routing.

Any idea if the beach bars will fit the stock cables and brake line length or would I need replacements?

I would really like to find some new handlebars for my 800, I would like old style swept back, and low (like the old Indians), any help would be appreciated.
