Fitting VFR 800 Bar Risers - Moto CNC

#motourev #motocnc
I purchased a set of Moto-cnc Honda VFR 800 bar risers for £54.99 from eBay and filmed how long it would take to fit. The quality is amazing and the finish is perfect, I was more than surprised on how easy they were to install.

Suavomir Krawczyk thank you 👍🏻

[@networkservices3121]

BUY THIS!! Here is why. I order this part. took 10 days to US was wrong color they shipped silver i ordered black. I sent email, expressing my dissatisfaction. I got a return EMAIL!!!! They stated they realized the mistake and there is the correct part on its way... THYEY CORRECTED IT!!! Before i sent the email. I did check my email and noticed one from them stating the error. Bottom line. This is a usuable product. And a respectable company.

[@hoyden1960]

Thanks for this. I’ve been trying to figure out if these can be used on my ‘07 VFR; I put a set on my ‘14 and they transformed my bike. I saw the HeliBar and other options for my current ride and really wasn’t happy with looks or price.

Hi hey these look good. Was looking on ebay there was a few but thanks now you put website up can see. Cool video be nice to hear how they fair compared to original bars. Or quick video too thanks.

Great video content as always! What type of phone ball mount did you fit on your stem? The Ram ball mount doesn’t fit snugly enough. Thanks mate!

[@Motourev]

I used the ultimate Addons ball sten Mount

[@johnDoe-ir3qy]

This video convinced me to buy a set for my VFR750 however once fitted turning left knocked the kill switch and turning right activated the high beam switch. Had to modify the fairing at the mirrors to splay it apart. Company blamed my bike, poss non OEM parts or set up and decided not to allow my review to be visible on their site. Bike is standard with a very common Puig flip screen. I do agree with the quality of manufacture and the improved riding position.

[@Motourev]

That’s surprising as I had no issue with mine whatsoever, didn’t fowl anything. Check your forks haven’t been lowered in the yoke, a lot of people lower the fork about 10mm

[@powerofone1645]

Those small wire clips are they needed ?

[@sa432jh]

Hi the torque is 20 ft lbs for the pinch bolts , I have fitted the foot peg lowering kit ,but had to move gear change lever and foot brake

[@toma13]

Felicitari! Se mai elibereaza dovada in ziua in care ai luat sau trebuie sa astepti dupa permis? Asfalt uscat! ✌🏻

[@KevsShed]

They look like nice bits of kit, very well engineered. Out of interest, do the instruction give any direction on the minimum amount of fork stanchion that must be protruding through the adaptor section in order to reclamp the bars? I’m only asking as I have my forks as low in the bars as they will go. Basically the spring ring rests against the top of the bars.So am unsure if I’d need to drop the yokes down a little.

[@Motourev]

Kevs Shed wow that is low, no the instruction don’t state it but on mine the bar riser is more or less 50% on the fork and the filler cap fills the other 50% so I would say at least 12.5mm about yoke

[@KevsShed]

Motourev: Motorcycle Tours & Reviews to be honest, I haven’t looked at the manual to confirm exactly how much fork should protrude. I may do that first and then give it an educated estimate before fitting risers 👍🏻

[@Mike-er7ym]

Great Video! where did you get the carbon effect wrap?for your top yoke? Thanks Bud.

[@Motourev]

Mike it was already on the bike when I bought it

[@RonShort13]

Thanks for the video. Nice job. I wanted to ask a question too. Where did you got the carbon triple clamp cover?

[@Motourev]

It was already on the bike when I got it, bought from a trader so he has no idea either, sorry.

Made it look really simple and a nice addition..does the brake or clutch reservoir's hit the screen on full lock ??? 🤘

[@Motourev]

Wobbly Brother no they are clear, imagine designed so they do clear. Will show on full lock on next video

[@baconbiketours9166]

Ran helibars on our vfr 750, very similar kit. Massive improvement over the miles. One good tip on vfrs, keep an eye on the voltage. Low or high voltage is early warning :) Enjoy the comfort.

[@Motourev]

Bacon Bike Tours cheers bro will keep an eye on them

[@richardbrotherton4548]

Thanks for post very helpful is thar a quad lock on there ?

[@danieltodd9917]

Hi great video looking at doing this to my 2002 vfr,are they the 25mm or 41mm riser's and the o ring you took off at the beginning does that go back on many thanks

[@Motourev]

Daniel Todd mine were the 25mm riser and the ring does not go back on. I have done everything to test if the bars move on the forks even tried lifting the front and the bars are solid in place.

[@bonnie-voyage1005]

On my 2003 VFR 800 the handle bar pinch bolts are 26Nm but my bolts are 8mm not 12mm, If memory serves me right. Can't check at the moment as I am 6,000 miles away from the bike.

[@sean845]

I'm only young but have a bad back so will definitely be looking into them for my vfr asap. Where did you get them bud ?. Was thinking of also lowering the pegs a bit 🤔

[@Motourev]

I thought about lowering pegs too but after these found I don’t need to. Did France last 1,000 miles and could’ve easily doubled that I was that comfy. moto-cnc.com/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI0abvyqnY7AIVAWHmCh0VNgRoEAAYASAAEgJG4fD_BwE

[@TT-it6cr]

Thanks for the video. Can i ask how tall you are? So i can gauge against myself putting some on my VFR. Many thanks.

[@Motourev]

T T I’m 5ft 9 but like to say 5ft 10 😂👍🏻

[@robwood2642]

So you don't refit the circlip? Cheers

[@martinroach608]

Great vid. I’m sure the difference is amazing. I bought my VFR with a kit like this already installed. Anybody know of a way to raise the bars even further? It would make a huge difference on my shoulders. Cheers

[@Motourev]

I’ve heard people have lowered the yoke but not sure that’s making much difference apart from it changing the ride position. Check out Kev’s Shed on KZbin he fitted a conversion kit with rental bars to his vfr, looks mega to be honest.

[@martinroach608]

@@Motourev Thanks a bunch. I think that’s the way I’m going to go. Cheers!

[@neilwiddison6529]

Hi mate looking at some for my vfr750. Did they make a difference cheers Neil.

[@Motourev]

Neil Widdison to me I noticed a massive difference even from just sitting on the bike. I didn’t think 25mm would be noticeable but honestly I was totally shocked at the difference.

[@user-kg8ti3ql1c]

Hi, I watched this video after logging into Moto CNC's site. The video was listed under the CBR1100XX for handlebar risers. Presumably they are exactly the same for the Blackbird and the VFR that you are working on? Another question; you removed the circular clips but I didn't see those going back on - are the clips redundant once the risers are fitted? Thanks.

[@Motourev]

The risers fit quite a few Honda’s. I just forgot to put the clips back on

[@gatoeddy]

Que pasada, me arias un gran favor si me pasases el enlace para poder cómpralos, un saludo desde Sevilla España

[@adamspaintbooth]

not sure about that. your bars are now only clamping into half the area they were. and the bolt is almost above the end of the forks

[@Motourev]

Adam Maxwell works great same as the thousands of other vfr’s that’s done it. I have checked regular to see if there’s been any movement of the bars horizontal and the vertical position and nothing so I am more than happy thanks 👍🏻

[@tinkertime7165]

Mine have been on ages and no movement at all.

[@gallagher4141]

Gonna have to invest in these, often find my neck and wrists hurt after a while, out of interest what did you torque up the bolts to?

[@Motourev]

Nigel Gallagher I haven’t yet, gotta find the torque setting the weekend.

factory manual for 6G, which says 20lbs for the handlebar pinch bolt

[@ashk5331]

Don’t forget to cover your tank and fairing top in case you drop them as he did 😳 and in case you lose some brake fluid, do them one at a time and try and keep your bars up right while off 👍 was thinking of getting some but don’t like how the clip on is half off the fork when refitted ?😳🤔 and then a cap is put on to make up the space which is not held to the fork top, am I right ? Or am I missing something?

[@Motourev]

Exactly!!! Yep I did drop it 😂😂🙈

[@paulwhite7924]

My question is why everyone outside of US does not remove all those ridiculous warning stickers off their tanks? I see people installing and upgrading their bikes, but keep that crap on? Will the Polizei fine you heavy or tow the bikes?!

[@Motourev]

That is a brilliant question, I’ve never noticed that, we do leave them on and I’ve never questioned it. I think what we find here in the uk is the less the bike is modified the easier it is to sell onwards. When buying uk people like things to be original and not modified, it seems to increase value here

[@simonsaunders12]

Well that was easy.

[@Motourev]

[@em3atasgamingchannel670]

How much exactly these bars are rising ?

[@Motourev]

Emil Petrov 25mm

[@johndunstan3875]

My only concern is that you now have exactly half of the grip on the forks as you had before. Hope its enough.

[@jennifermcglue4560]

But there the same height,just top yoke is lower steering angle increased,more weight on the front,and the windscreen is closer to the bars.

[@Motourev]

Not touched or adjusted the yoke, simple fact is they work, steers better, better on the wrists. Simple really.
