    Does anybody know what size risers clear the tank? and does anybody have a link to where they sell them? The design sure sucks on these. No shop in my area has this style riser.

    The steering head angle is steeper on the 85 and 86 XJ700's. Gives it the cruiser look when combined with the long forks.

    Here's a link to risers that I used on my bike:

    They have 15mm and 30mm sizes available. Even with a riser installed, you may still have to use shorter grips than the stock ones so you can move
    the controls further out towards the bar ends.
