Handle Bar Taper?

[Backcountry Bandit]

Hey guys, anyone tell me if the stock risers are fat bar compatible (1 1/8th)? Or are they 7/8"?

Going to the CFR bar and wondering if I need to swap out riser too.

Thanks!

bars and riser are 7/8" and the bars have a lower rise in them then the old fat X bars.

CFR makes an adapter or yes you will need a new riser

with the mountain bar top clamp, your going to need a riser for 7/8 only, otherwise bolt holes wont line up.
was going to use the original 5" riser from my xm, but found out quickly it wont work.

2hr's in and got most decals off, misc. foam and sound deadening off, riser situation figured out, repositioned throttle and kill switch. also got link brackets on. for us w/o electric start, hope someone comes up with a good use for the area behind the seat, kind of an eyesore.
also think putting the clutch guard is going to be a pain in the ***. too tight. otherwise nicely built sled

I tried not having a mountain bar last season and found that I really didn't need it and prevented me from being lazy in technical situations. So the heck with that thing

So the stock riser is absolutely beautifully machined, I'm 6'6" so I need the tall riser on mine... but I'm sad about it cause the stock one is so good looking
