2.5 pivot riser on top allows for the factory ring at base and if you get lake effect the factory bar pad fits too. along with the WRP seat is now a perfect ride height comfortable as all get out and easy sit to stand and the riser is perfect for stand up riding too. 2" don't seem like much but when I get on buddy's 11 XTX stock seat and riser it feels like a low rider now.

On top of the 6 inch riser? Do you need cables for that?2.5 pivot riser on top allows for the factory ring at base and if you get lake effect the factory bar pad fits too. along with the WRP seat is now a perfect ride height comfortable as all get out and easy sit to stand and the riser is perfect for stand up riding too. 2" don't seem like much but when I get on buddy's 11 XTX stock seat and riser it feels like a low rider now.

It feels higher than 2 inches for sure. Totally transforms the sled. And I haven't even riden it yet. 50°here today. Green grass

I put one on my 14 Vector LTX. I measured the before and after and it's exactly 2" higher. The WRP seat is much firmer and this is the likely reason it feels higher than 2"...feels higher to me as well. I actually wish it was another inch or two higher.

Have a good time..looks like plenty of new lake effect coming. Can't make it this week but if you see 3 blue sleds, a white and red anniversary and a black one, or any combo, but never more, moving at a good clip....that's us!
