Handlebar setup? Need help with aftermarket

[Brappinthrottle]

Hello Everyone,

need help with an aftermarket bar question. I hate the sweep/feel of the protapers, so I just picked up some new bars, went with a 3 inch rise backcountry bar.

Now I need to figure out the best setup for a riser to get back to stock height. Looks like the pro tapers on a PRO RMK are about a 7 inch rise, so I was thinking about using these 4 inch 15 degree RSI risers, then my new 3 inch bar would bolt right on. thoughts? will this work?

Also, I have never had to install grip heaters / grips. I'm assuming its just like moto grips? can I just buy these grip heaters and have it be plug and play on a pro?

also, what are your thoughts on wrap grips vs standard?


thanks!

You don't want an angled riser, go with straight risers and a pivot post adapter. It will give you 3/4" rise, and any adjustability you might want on angle. 3" risers on this plus your bars will put you within 1/4" of stock height. RSI heaters are very straightforward install, (plug and play) but they are wider than stock grips so account for this on your grip selection and usable bar space.

Where in the world were you able to order the bars? I've been trying to get some for my son and everyone is on back order!

Which pivot adapter works the best? something simple like this:

or something like this:

or something like this one (even tho it does not say polaris, maybe skidoo is the same mount?)

or is there a better option? I agree, this method will allow me to dial in my angles a bit better.
