Ive just been looking at for a new set of renthals tonight...I've 758s on a massive set if risers from just bandits...but I'm still leaning forward with alot of weight on my already pinned and plated left wrist...so looking at higher renthals to take some weight off....looking for a lower seat too so ,that,ll help aswell...cant get better than renthals i.m.o

@AndyB I'm.not sure if the standard cables and hoses fit but I did see a gsx1400 running z1300 Kawasaki bars they are much higher than standard Suzuki ones .
If that helps you.
only a slightly modified gsx1400
oh and a standard one too

AndyB - Agree totally re. Renthals. Well made, light, and a vast choice in the range. Hopefully a higher set will help with your wrist :onya:.

Suprised re. your seat comment though - I reckon that my `14 (with its standard seat) provides me with the lowest seating position i`ve had on a bike for years. I`m not tall, 5` 10", and sometimes the seat feels too low!

Baz, changing the bars?Think im one of the rare ones that like stock bars. I tried with 30 mm risers, so much more wind pressure in wrong places. Might look into it, a few mm lower i reckon id like. Had Laverda adjustables on a Suzuki yonks ago, they were brilliant. Not sure if still available.
Nah, mine seem perfect for me. 6.0' tall hippo. Then again I have nothing to compare it to. I'm curious if the riding position could be improved but for comfort I'll be looking for improved seating first.

My old 14 had a custom lowered seat with renthal risers and renthal high bars & a Jack up kit....it was perfect for me at 6'1"..the riding position was reminiscent of the old AMA superbikes..my new 14 is all over the shop..standard seat,Jack up kit,crappy risers and low renthals...its not the best....I've got stuff on order....but I'm struggling for decent risers....if anyone in the org has a set . I definitely have a look

Hi SA14
mate can you please tell me the name of those risers? (the ones in your pic) and where I can get a set,  they are exactly what I'm looking for. I'm in Perth and can't seem to be able to find them anywhere. 
thanks for your time.
regards Wayne

@cawe    FWIW   SA14 hasn't been on the site since December last year, so I don't think you'll get an answer to your question.
😎  Always looking for the next corner.  😎

Ok thanks mate, Dam I really wanted to know where he got those risers. I hope he's ok.

Think he got annoyed by a comment. Left and never came back.

Hadn't realised you boys from the other side of the world were so delicate and thin skinned, I will make sure I don't post anything that you lot could find offensive in the future.  :whistling:

Thank you very much for the comparison table
Just bought and installed bottom option in the table, the HIGHest option from Rental, black color.
Riding position improved a lot and also look is fantastic
Very happy here.
