I am running a RSI 4" 15 degree riser on my '09 D8 155" and my cable length is fine. But, I do not think you will have enough to go more then 4" though.

RSI got my vote too. Running a 3" riser and no issues. The RSI risers use a larger bolt size to secure the riser to the steering post. You'll have to do a bit of drilling to mount them up.
The mountain strap... stock polaris or fabcraft will bolt right to the stock Assault bars.

so you think the angled RSI risers are the way to go?? not the dual pivoting?
how about RSI's mountain bar?? theyre a pretty fair price over the Polaris bar....

IMO, the RSI risers are the way to go. I have used dual pivot risers in the past, and I have had them slip multiple times on hard landings..
X2. And on the assaults and 09 / 10 d8's you would need to buy a pivot adaptor for the post to run the dual pivot style.

I went with a 4" block riser and took out the 1" riser that is already installed. Brake cable was tight when turning fully left. I took a piece of clear plastic tubing and split it along the length and zip-tyed it around the metal supports to keep the cables from rubbing. Worked awesome.

You will have to strip the paint off the bars and rough up the surface of the clamps as well, use like 60 grit paper.

do I HAVE to remove the small 1" riser that exists. If so then a 3" riser will only equate to a 2" rise after that 1" stocker comes out....??
S
Yes you have to remove the 1" riser that was in there. In my case I used the 1" spacer riser as the top bar mount as the bolting worked out better that way. That was why I went with a 4" block riser. I got 3" overall out of the deal.
