Handlebar riser

Post by Toby6938 »

Can anybody tell me if the handlebar mounting hardware changed from the R1150R to the R12R? GenMar has a riser for the 1150, but not the 1200, that looks like what I need. Thanks.

The Moto-Techniques risers are the same for the R1150R and R1200R. It would appear that they both have the slight step between the front and rear posts. (about half a mm).

Postscript:
The GenMar 1150R risers don't fit a '10 12R. The holes just barely don't align and the riser spacer doesn't account for the front to rear step off. Also the GenMar bolts are pretty soft and don't tolerate much misalignment.
