Hey guys, my buddy has a 97 powder special 580 (still carbureted) and he needs risers. We figger we can get a good two to three inches of rise with the stock cables and this leaves me wondering... I cant remember for sure on how his bars mount but can we just throw the regular two inch block in there or wont that work? Is there a certain type/style riser guys have to use on these? Im a Yamaha guy myself and don't know much for the little tricks on these cats but just want to help my bud out some. So if any of you guys know what type/style/mount of risers I would need that would be great if you could share your info. Thanks!

I used to have that same sled. If I remember right it comes stock with a 1.5 - 2 inch riser block. I believe I replaced it with a 4 inch riser block without having to change cables or brake line.
