I did wander over to the other site where it seems Nomadken mentioned the risers I spoke about. This is a nicer site, but not visited much, Why is that? The gallery itself offers so much info, just by checking out other folks rides.

You know, I get kinda' caught up in the ego thing with everybody that I ride with having a Harley, and I'm riding this 800 Kawi'. Then I think, well wouldn't it be cool to have a big ole' Indian to sport around on, but then I realize it's just the name really. My Drifter is coming around to just the way I want it, by the way my new Corbin seat came in last Friday. It hasn't been tested on a long ride yet though, possibly this weekend I hope. My expectation's were completely satisfied, they did a great job on it. Maybe some day I'll put a few pictures up in the gallery, and maybe some one might get inspired by my Drifter as well.

What is up with Indian anyway? They don't have much in the way of dealers. I live in the Tampa Bay area, and supposedly a dealership was going to open - according to their site - nothing yet that I know of. I would just like to see one in person for my own curiosity.  8)

Don't mind you referring folks to the Drifter forum on Delphi. Lots of good info there and we are about the info - not competition.

I just installed riser spacer kit I got off ebay. They went on with out any problem, thanks to the instruction's provided by the seller. The spacers are highly polished aluminum, with all hardware provided.

Here is the Item number: 110290054613 on ebay for you to check out. I had tried 4" dogbones, but they put to much strain on the cables, then I saw these which was exactly what I wanted in the first place. The spacers are 2", and bring the bars up & back perfectly. I had taken a ride last sunday, about 150 miles or so, and they were great. My only problem with my Drifter is the seat, a real butt breaker IMO. So I bought a Corbin, which I hope will arrive any day...

Good Luck!

I was just reading this thread the other day that might help you: http://forums.delphiforums.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=KawasakiDrifter&msg=9991.17 For some reason I can't get it to start you on page 1, so go to the bottom of the page and go back to the beginning.

I hope I didn't just make a faux pas!

Can you guys help me choose the best handle bar risers for my Drifter 800?
Any input would be helpful.
Thanks,
