Just wondering if a 1" or 2" riser on the Attak would screw up the rider forward ergos? I'm about 6'-3" and would need about a 1" or 2" riser for perfect stand up riding. I don't want to screw up the ergos when sitting. Also, can you add a block with the new bars or do you have to replace the whole thing?
 

I dont know if you can add a block on to another block, it wont ruin the riding ergos they say the mtn sleds have the rider forward and there risers are much bigger
 
When I sat on the Attak at the show, I thought it would be perfect for someone under 6'-0".
 
I'M 6' AND WHEN MY ATTAK COMES IN I WILL ORDER THE RISER OFF THE MOUNTAIN SLED-IT SIT'S PERFECT FOR MY HEIGHT

hmmmmm, about 6'2" here and the Apex will likely be the first Yamaha I wont put a riser on. I sat on an Apex Mountain back in March ant the riser is a good 2 inches or so taller. As I remember, it blocked the gauges, didnt it?

Sat on both of them and rode both of them, mountain sled is just like sitting on my quad

I should have been more clear, what I meant was do you have gauges on your quad to even have to worry about seeing?
 
I am 6-5" and I can grab the bars on the Mtn Apex with out having to bend over. Gauges, never bothered to look for em' cause if I am looking for them, I won't be looking at the tree in front of me.
 
I'm 6" 1', I thought they were perfect 4 me. If you go 2 raise them U might have 2 watch the lenghts of the cables. Going 2" higher might just put a load on the cables & have an effect on the sleds operation.

Just a thought, as I've seen that on some of the other sleds that lifted their bars. I'm not sure if Yamaha has given a little more slack on these, I kinda doubt it.............but I could B wrong on this.
 
I don't think it will screw up the rider forward egros. You may have to replace the whole thing. Adding risers on risers could cause some deflection.
 
I can see where a mountain rider wouldn't be so concerned about looking at the gauge but I'm sure a trail rider will want to see it :ORC
