So after riding the SS for a while, I though it would be good to raise the bars to accommodate standing up.  I went with the Pro Taper KX High in gold.  Used the Pro Taper riser and 1 1/8 bar adapters and wow - what a difference.   All controls fit but not much room for error.  Next project, longer front brake line - upgrading to steel braided and a longer clutch cable.

They are gold rims, and after a few weeks, I really like the looks of it.  The ridding position is so much better. I should have done it a long time ago.  

Update:  The Protapper Pad had to come off,  it really gets in the way of the key and the choke.  Other than that, I still love this set up.
