Ed, Can you get me a pair of these Rivco SpeedMaster risers? http://www.rivcoproducts.com/products/product.php?productid=488&cat=403&page=1They're not what you've got posted on your website (those I don't care for aesthetically.) These are much better looking! Let me know bro, and I'll place an order ASAP. Thanks, Jim

Too bad... the original design was far better looking. Oh well, thanks for checking.
Take care,
Jim

The caps don't match the risers at all looking at the pic.

Yea, I changed it Jim! You had the most current! Jake, you are correct, the ones on the site are actually stock caps that were used in the picture but the risers come with matching caps. I suspected that was the case so I double checked RIVCO. Good observation. But they DO come with matching caps, NOT the ones pictured. eddy

The moral of this story is to always check with Eddy first before we buy elsewhere. 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Took delivery, and installed them last night. These are really, really nice units. The pics on Rivco's website do them no justice at all. Box states 1 5/8" back, and 5/8" up from OEM stock riser position. I didn't have a chance to compare one side-by-side with the stock riser, but let me tell you they put the SpeedMaster bars right where I needed them with the Corbin seat setup I'm using. These FREAK'N ROCK!!!! Rode into work this morning with the new shiny risers installed, and I think I've gone to heaven. What a difference these have made. I'll get pics posted on my website ASAP for you Ed. Thanks a bunch my friend!!!!!!! YOU-DA-MAN. Jim

Cables were a tight fit, but worked out. I really didn't have to reroute much of anything...

They look good, off topic here but what are those triangular black things mounted on top of your forks? mounting brackets or adjustable suspension or something else...

Oberon preload adjuster knobs (I'm using Thruxton preload adjustable fork top caps.)
Thanks!
