Super Tenere 1200: 2" Rox Risers (2014+)
I added a few steps to the Altrider Instruction Video that helped with obtaining maximum relaxation of the oem hydraulic lines & cables for gen 2 bikes which have re-positioned, rubber damped bar clamps up & back about 10mm, but use the same length cables as the gen 1 bikes.
- I made my own installation kit & modified the Altrider instructions by taking it a step further…(rubber hose clamps, fuel line, zip ties)
- Step #4: I used 1 or 2 sizes up for rubber cable clamp to allow more movement
- Step #6 I used longer length of fuel line on clutch line + added fuel line to the brake line transition around the curve of the steering head on the right side (not part of instruction video)
- Step#8: reinstalling handlebars is not as simple as demonstrated because it is possible to not have the l & r riser square to each other beause they move independently…it took me a few tries to ensure the risers were square to each other & the bar grips sit in the same plane…i.e. not 1 grip further forward or backward relative to the other.
- Step #9 both metal cable guides require being bent up & back (see pic below)
Additional slack can be achieved by moving the mirror mounts in & hand grips inboard slightly.
The bars will be restricted in full range of motion backward with modified oem lines/cables…..on my bike the max back adjustment (toward rider) is just behind the center line of the clamps, any further would be too close for my 185 cm (6' 1"), 83 cm (33" )reach body with seat in low position…I adjust them slight forward of the center line for the best balance of seated & standing riding.
An option is to install longer hydraulic lines.
