Barbacks and parabelum scout

Post by Ivan Koloff »

Anyone have the names of the barbacks(risers) that are flat on top to fit with the parabellum scout fairing? I have Verholens on now and I know they wont fit with it. I know of the Wunderlick and Genmar but thought there was another one out their I saw once but cant locate it on a search. The scout should be here in a couple of weeks. (The Verholens will be up for sale for a resonable offer) Thanks if you can help. Ivan

Disclaimer - this is not my bike. The photo comes from my archives; when I see an interesting pict posted, I will ask the poster for permission to save the pict for future reference. I saved this pict because I was (and still am) interested on the Parabellum Scout fairing used with bar risers. These appear to be the Moto-Techniques bar risers, as they are identical to the M-T risers I use. And this is definetly a Scout fairing - I have several more picts of this particular bike. FWIW, I believe the bike belongs to fellow board member Paul Mihalka.

Ivan: Excellent timing on your post! I also have a Scout on order and it should be here in a couple of weeks. I ordered mine on 2/6. When did you order yours? I've sent Moto-Techniques an email asking them if their 1" rise and 1 1/4" setback model will work on my R1200R. Hopefully they will. Quality looks good and the price sure is right.

After trying a few different sheilds over the last 2 summers I ordered mine on Jan 31st or Feb 1st. They said about 4 to 6 weeks. From what everyone says it sounds like the answer.

Will a Parabellum Scout fit a bike without risers ok? I presume so, but would like to check whilst I'm still "waiting for my ship to come in ..."

Yes It's made to fit without risers. But if you have them(risers) they need to be flat (flusch) on top.
