Bar backs

[trancey]

Has anyone fitted these to a GSA LC? I was wondering if the brake lines needs to be changed as the kit mentions adapters.

It's crap translation of German to English but they do mention

All necessary screws and an extension for the brake and clutch cable are included with the conversion kit

I just fitted some Roxrisers

took about 10min, had to relocate the cables to the outside of the forks.

I fitted the same Roxrisers and didn't need to move the cables.

Yes, I can see that, but some have fed back about various bar risers not actually needing extensions.

Can the Rox risers be mounted in a horizontal position with the standard hoses etc. i.e. not as risers, just as bar backs

No alterations and easy fit,
Just done 2000 miles trip and they have improved the reach/ comfort

I got these from E-bay, cheap in price, but nice quality, and look similar in function.

I don't want risers, I want pull backs. I have a bike related shoulder injury so I need the bars closer to my chest, any recommendations?

Unless you replace the entire triple tree it is impossible to have the bars back without a rise and keeping the stock bars. The only way to do it is a new set of bars, if you can find any that will work!

The other issue you will run into, without raising the height, is that the bars will contact the tank, and or, the other body parts.

In answer to the OP, I am a shortie so needed the bars nearer to me so put on the ROX 40mm adjustable risers. Yes they set the bars higher ,you can then rotate the bars a bit to lower them back. I have ended up with a position that has my hands in a slightly higher position than stock but a lot nearer and most importantly my upper arm is in a lower position giving me bent arms as I was straight armed with the stock set up.
Put out an ask for someone near you with a riser on their bike so you can sit on it and see. You are welcome to try mine if you want to travel all the way down here.
