Handlebars and Rox Risers

[Fe Man]

So, at 6'1", the 2inch Rox Risers I installed with my stock bars on my 2006 Tiger make riding while standing a bit more bearable but I'm still unhappy with handlebar height. Most of the moto taper handlebars have no where near enough rise to work as a replacement. I am somewhat repluctant to order the 3.5 inch risers as I don't see the additional 1.5 inches making enough difference.

What have you taller riders done about your Girlies?

ATV bend for the bars works pretty damn good

I tried sitting down on the seat :)

I'm 6'1" and swapped over to ProTaper SE XR50 bars with Mustang pegs.  High enough that I can stand upright for extended periods comfortably.  Any higher and it would feel silly while sitting (think ape hangers)
