XR1200 rear Suspension Riser Blocks
When the XR1200 race bikes were developed in Europe, they came up with the idea of using solid spacer blocks to raise the rear ride height by around 2" in order to quicken the steering, improve the handling and improve ride height. We have taken this same idea and, using our own test bike, have developed and fine tuned the riser blocks so that they are lighter, stronger and better looking than the original race parts. The original riser blocks used in the Spanish and Italian race series weighed 0.75kg each, ours now weigh just 0.15kg each. These are manufactured from aerospace grade aluminium and anodised in black with the Adrenalin-Moto logo discreetly laser etched on the top edge (picture shown lower right is of pre-production parts without anodising). Passenger footrests and associated hangers need to be removed in order to fit these blocks, as they use the same mounting positions on the frame as the original passenger footrest brackets. If you are using the stock or aftermarket exhaust pipes that attach to the passenger footrest then a new exhaust mount will need to be fabricated. We also offer a replacement passenger footrest kit incorporating a new exhaust bracket for use with these risers. See part number 04040320206902. If using the Termignoni race exhaust then there is no need to fabricate new brackets as this exhaust uses a different mounting system from stock. For use with stock or aftermarket suspension units. Supplied as a full kit including two riser blocks, mounting bolts and new upper shock bolts. Please Note: These blocks are designed for race use and have not been tested or warranted for use on public highways. They will significantly quicken the steering and alter the handling of your bike, so please take care when first riding the bike with these parts fitted.
