2" Rox Risers for Gen 2 Tenere

[Dagwood_55]

Altrider's website has 2" Rox Risers for a '14+ Tenere that will be available April the 8TH. It says they
are "Specifically designed to work with the angled top caps" of the '14+.

So will the older 1 1/8" risers not work and why will these work better??

The Gen 2 rox risers are longer where they clamp to the angled clamps so they go all the way through the clamps. Gen 1 are shorter and don't go all the way through the angled clamps.

If you get 'em, you'll at least need to do some re-routing of cables/hoses but most find they need extensions.

Maxey's Yamaha here in OKC is stocking the European risers from Off the Road now. they can be reached at 405-946-0550.

April the 8th of two years ago probably. I had them, and they are a different part number than the 12-13 S10 fitment. I much prefer a higher bend bar than risers on the stock bars due to the additional deflection in bushings with the rox risers installed. Hope that helps.

I have tried to fit these to my 2015 and there is no way to tighten the bolts if you set them to pivot. I have ball end sockets and they wont do it either. So what is the point in saying they pivot when you cant set them that way. Am i missing something. Thanks for any replies.

I just installed my 2" Rox Risers; I have mine straight up and rotated my bars straight up as well that relaxed the clutch and front break line enough; no issues...If I choose to rotate the risers back I would need longer lines; I will ride it the way it is and go from there; my bike is a 2016 super T ES.

I installed them of my 15 ES and this is how I addressed the issue. The instructions call for the leading edge to have a smaller gap than the trailing edge. Make sure the extensions are straight up and down then tighten all four screws to proper torques values. If you are wanting to roll the handlebars back then loosen the front bolts to roll the bars back then re-torque front two bolts. You don't really need to re-torque the rears bolts beside you can't get to them anyway. Do the back bolts if you want to roll the bars forward. Using thread lock and the bolts won't back out.

I installed 1 3/4'' Rox Risers on my ST 2015 ZE(ES) using the Altrider adaptor kit.

Also moved a litle bit the clutch lever to right and the break lever to right in the bar and do not have problems with the cables...

However I have the feeling the bike is now not so safe to manage, essentially in slow speeds...or to deviate from inesperated obstacles...
Strange unsafe feeling... or perhaps needs habituation...
