Hi guys,

If I install a Rox Riser, their 2" rise pivoting riser, will the stock brake and clucth cable be long enough? Or will I have to buy longer cables?

FYI, my 795 monster's stock riser height is 6 cm, add 2"/5 cm of the Rox height to that, that's 11 cm rise.

Thanks in advance.

You might not need longer, depending on how far forward you have the ROX. You'll have to try it and see.
I have a pair of "as new" 2" ROX for fatbars if you are interested.
BTW, snowmobile sites are the place to shop for these things. Those guys love 'em.

Sofadriver, thanks for the offer, but the stock bar on my bike is 7/8" and I guess it's not a fatbar.

At the time being I'm torn between this Rox riser or a Rizoma bar. The rox will definitely give me a more upright riding position, but after months of riding my bike, I find that I've adapted to the slightly leaning forward riding position. As for the rizoma, I'm hoping that it will give me a more relax and comfortable wrists position.

But I guess those are just me trying to rationalizing thing, I guess the real reason is I want to customized the bike. Still not sure which one to get, though  ;D
