Well after much thought and research I went to Royal Distributing in Guelph Ontario.
One of the partners Mark is a bud of mine , I asked him if we could do some testing on my RTX.
I wanted to put on a PowerMadd pivoting bar riser, as well as a 6" riser block.
Not sure if there would be enough cables I grabbed a 4" riser block as well ,just in case.
Well got back to my shop and puled the RTX apart and read the instructions (this is new for me haha).
Im told to drill out the factory threads,hmm now Im thinking here do I want to drill on my brand new sled?
Done drilling , installed the pivot riser, nice fit,BUT the one thing you will notic is no more plastic chrome peice.
Oh well it looked cheap anyways.
Installed the 6" riser to test and the cables reach, so I proceed to install everything else.
I think it looks good and serves a purpose to me anyways.
Standing up on the sled is great now, not looking like a hunchback.
Ill put up some pics tomorrow after I do some xmas shopping,,BLAH
Im gonna try the 4" as well to see how it fits me but the 6" looks the charm.
