Got a new 16 ProClimb with factory 5.5 riser way to short. How high can I go without cable extensions? Need to add 2 inch higher cat riser.
Tanks for the help!

IMHO, the top setting is too high for technical riding, and I'm 6'2". I typically ride with it 2 notches down from the top and feel quite comfortable to man-handle the machine.

Riser

Getting off the point of my post, Arctic Cat makes different fixed risers for the Pro Climb. Do you have to add cable/brace line extensions to go higher than stock height of 5.5 inches.

on my 17 the stock riser is 4.5". I went 1" taller to 5.5" no problem, could probably easily fit 6.5 with minor cable zip tie adjustments.
Im 6' also and the 5.5 riser is perfect, tilted forward. I ride forward.

how did you get a 5.5? I was looking and stock is 4.5 and the next up from cat is 6.5.
the 4 was to low for me and the 6.5 is just a bit tall so i would love a 5.5.
the 6 will fit no problem I too am 6'
Ill trade a 6.5 for a 5.5 each pay shipping.

The highest one AC makes is 8.5 inch and does not require cable extensions on Mountain models. Page 141 in the 2018 accessories catalog.
