So correct me, it sounds like if I use the 15mm riser no problem with hose length but using the 30 mm riser the brake hose is tight??

I just ordered a set of Tusk risers for my '12. I wish Tobasco had posted pics of his, but I'll see mine soon. I think it depends on what year of bike you have regarding the lines being too short? I have read that a '12 can go 30 mm with out any change of lines, but I can't say first hand yet.

Rox Speed FX Pro-Offset Elite Block Risers also move the bars back about an inch but... the Tusk Risers are WELL priced.

I have a 2012 and just put the 30mm risers on from Tusk and they work great. No binding at all with any of the cables.

I've been running the 30mm tusk risers on my 2013 for a year now with no issues. Love them and the price.

I put Pro Taper Raptor bars on my 15. Higher than stock with less sweep. No problem with lines.

Question. Those who have purchased and have these mounted on a 2012-2013 model ST, is the thread pitch on the longer bolts the same as the OEM bolts? And to confirm, the 30mm length does work on the pre 2014 bikes without any cable binding or stretch? I really want to get risers and this is a price point much less than anything else out there. I've used similar set ups on my dirt bikes and dual sports. Just want to verify they will work trouble free and modification fee on my ST.

Thanks

I haver a '12. The cables aren't binding, but my heated grips wire is a tad tight on the right side. They don't gap the same as the stock. I'll take a pic like I said I would last year. I'm not a fan of the look but for the price they have helped. Even though I'm 6'2" I still feel hunched when standing. Might need different bars?
