Anyone know how tall I can go with a replacement bar riser, from stock. without replacing cables / wires without over stressing them.
What size is everyone using.
I think an inch or two would do it from the stock size.

I have powermadd adjustable 5-8 inch and it works good. I had to reroute the brake and electronic. But it works really good

I added an isovibe riser to mine, you can do 1.5” or 2.5” depending on how you mount it. And it takes some vibes out of the bars, also takes some shock out those unexpected that sneak up on you.

I went with the fly adjustable riser and bar pad. I think it's about 6" so just a bit larger than stock and I can't imaging you could go much taller.

Stock riser on your LTX is 5.5". Cat has the same riser as stock in heights of 6.5", 7.5" and 8.5". I think you can get them in bare aluminum or painted black for around $50-$60.

I love my Lake Effect 8" riser - makes a big difference when moving from sit to stand or absorbing a hit. No cable changes needed. And it looks great too in polished finish!

What are the measuring points for a riser? Center bar to center bar?

Yup or just the overall length of just the riser not including the bar clamps.What are the measuring points for a riser? Center bar to center bar?

I have a 7&8 inch Lake Effect riser. I like the 7” riser best. Less strain on cables and easier routing.
