I'm a pretty tall guy (6'4") and find I have to bend over more than I should to be able to grip the handlebars. I want to install lifters to allow me to sit up straighter and still have a grip on the bars. I bought 3" ones, but don't know if using them will require me to change brake and clutch cables.

Anybody install lifters? How long a set of lifters were you able to install without changing the cables?

All the cables will be long enough. The only thing I had to do was remove some of the clips on he handle bars (holding cables and wires) . I also removed the cork screw looking brackets under the trees

I dunno I installed 2 in risers and it was pretty tight - not sure if three will work...

I am curious what this looks like.

Ditto

Never quite been happy with some of the re-routing I had to do looks-wise, but it all works fine. Just tight.

That said, the 3" risers were maybe the best mod I made; bike *really* has a choppery feel now, compared to the low-down varmint position the bike comes with

Hey do you have a photo? I am thinking about the same thing only if it improves the ride. Like you I am tall in the saddle -saw 2 in ones online - but it looked like it blocked the gas cap

I'll post one this weekend.
