What do those little fellas go for? I figure I might as well finally raise my bars to a comfy level.

They run about $140 for the anti vibe rise.  Check them out at www.tqsatv.com under the control section.

You can get them in 7/8 as well.

steve do you got +2 inch control cables?  Mine are pretty tight with my riser
Title: Re: Rox anti-vibe risers
Post by: Gunz on January 08, 2009, 05:32:19 PM
I put mine on today, they are definitely tight. I rerouted my throttle cable and it was fine after that. I rerouted my clutch about 5 times and I didn't do anything but make it worse. I ended up going down to the speed shop and getting another cable that was about 1/2" longer, it did the trick. I would highly recommend to anybody going with the Rox +2 riser and Flexx bars, go with a +1-2 extended throttle and clutch cables.

How about with the stock bars?
Title: Re: Rox anti-vibe risers
Post by: Gunz on January 08, 2009, 11:09:31 PM
Kamakaze,

Thanks Bro for the complements seriously means alot. My setup is about 1-1 1/4" over stock. I can't answer yet as far as the Anti-vibe risers and the Flexx bars being redundant till after Saturday (doing a 6-8 hour test run). I do know that after I swapped my stock bars to my Flexx bars, I lost about an inch of height and that was definitely in the wrong direction. If the small of your back hurts and or your wrist hurt or start to numb then your bars are to low. After I put on my Flexx bars I want to raise them about 1 1/2-2 inches. Since Rox offered a 2" anti-vibe riser I figured what the hell, right. I'm going to do some dune riding Saturday and some woods riding on Sunday. After that I'll do a write up in the "product review section" :thumbs:

NaturalRaptor,  Thanks Bro. :thumbs:

Machelis,

I'm just going to throw out a good guess for you and say definitely a +2 clutch cable and throttle cable. They are super easy to switch out too.

I have the standard Rox Adjustable 2" risers with flexx bars and love them so you will be in heaven with both the Flexx and anti vibe. Good choice.

Post by: machelis on January 14, 2009, 06:28:03 PM
Thanks for the heads up 4gunz. Better safe then a headache  :help:

I'll pick up longer cables when I go for the spacer. Money's a little tight right now due to snowmobile projects and work cutting my hours, so probably this summer  8)
Title: Re: Rox anti-vibe risers
Post by: Kamakazi on January 14, 2009, 07:12:15 PM
so 4gunz, did you notice a difference running the rox antivibe?  or is it about the same as just the flex bar?

I like it even better now. I'll do a full write up later this week. I want to snap some pics and compare stock height vs flexx vs flexx with risers....blah blah blah.

4gunz was it you that said the houser 1.1/4houser stem was shorter than stock? can anyone confirm this?Iam going to be getting a new houser stem with antivibe clamp and flexx bars. just need to know ahead of time if i still will need a 2" set of risers on top of this.So i can have all the right parts at once for re assembly :thumbs: thanks in advance
Title: Re: Rox anti-vibe risers
Post by: Gunz on January 15, 2009, 09:31:12 PM
I said that a 1 1/4 houser and flexx bars will be shorter then the stock stem/bar setup. Give me a day or 2 and I'll do a write up with measurements.
Title: Re: Rox anti-vibe risers
Post by: Kamakazi on January 27, 2009, 05:06:19 PM
hey 4gunz, how tall are u?  and would you go with a higher riser if you were to do it again?  ive been looking at 3.5" riser, and wondering if its enough/too much.  i ordered some new SS cables and was wondering if i needed a brake cable too.  your thoughts please.

I noticed you had a braided clutch cable... where did yah get that?
Title: Re: Rox anti-vibe risers
Post by: G-Man on January 27, 2009, 07:23:28 PM
Streamline makes an aftermarket braided clutch cable.  Just checked them out.  I read they are +2" over stock length.  Look like nice stuff.

Really, I couldnt get anything to come up for the raptor beside the oem black vinyl +2..... I'll try again. Cause Im getting the setup next month!

Yup, I just tried, could you post a ling to the page. I still cannot find it.... maybe I am just an idiot!

gr8ride, thats a "terrycable" clutch cable. Steve at TechQuadShop has cables all the way up to +12.

Kamakaze.... even though we talked earlier, I probably should post for others. I'm 6' and am happy with my rise. I would definitely NOT go higher, but thats me. This pic does no justice, but It measures 44 3/16ths. The stock bars (no risers) on my bike measured at the same spot is 43 1/8th". I have a 7/8 to 1 1/8th (3/4") turner riser, a 2" 1 1/8th to 1 1/8th rox anti-vibe riser, and 14* ATV Flexx bars. With all that said, I am 1 1/16th" over stock height.

Kamakaze, you mentioned going with a 3.5" rox riser with Flexx right? That will put you between 1.75-2" over your stock setup height. You'll definitely need +2 clutch and throttle, but you got +4's already so your good. :thumbs:

Cool, I'll just get ahold of Steve about them. Next month I'll be getting the bars and risers so I will just add the cables to the list! Thanks 4gunz!
