Maurice, really appreciate the pics. Between these and the description you’ve already posted, plus having the correct ROC component...my local bike garage should have no real issues achieving this.

You're welcome. But If you have allen wrenches, phillips head you could achieve this.

Any issue with the cables?

Nope. Loosen brake,clutch cable bolt SLIGHTLY, turn cable downward to give little more slack. Then loosen master cylinders both sides and slide forward about 1/2 inch.

Well these are the ROX risers for the BMW GS that seem to fit perfectly. The mechanics said he had to pull a bit of length through for the digital display…but nothing else needed moved or adjusted.
I see threading through the risers so I may run a threaded bar through both and bolt the ends for secondary retention.

Maurice, did you notice any additional vibes in your bars after the install?

Nope. Love the ride.
You do? Make sure bolts tightened.

I’ll give them a check again today. Possibly worked loose a bit. Probably makes sense as the vibes are definitely worse than when first installed. Had to cut an Allen key shorter to get 2 of the bolts due to tight access. That does concern me I’m not getting enough torque in those two.
