Breva 1100 handlebars - can I raise them?

[Guest welsman1]

Hi. Just found the site and thought I'd try asking for help as I have spent an unproductive time this morning with my local Guzzi dealer. I have a 2005 Breva 1100 and it's a superb bike. As I have a relatively short inside leg I had the lower seat fitted which is great BUT I had an injury to my shoulder last year which is aggravated by the postion of my hands on the bars. Simple answer is to stop and rest every hour and get on with it but it would be nicer to ride for longer or it's going to take me forever to get there!

 

So does anyone know where I can get something that will raise the bars about two inches and alos Ideally move them back towards me slightly? Everything else about the bike is perfect as I'll tell you if you're thinking of buying one. Well except for...

 

Used 2 litres of oil in 4,000 miles

STILL can't get a delivery date on heated grips

Those lovely 'golden' downpipes discolour and corrode even with a wash and clean after each ride.

 

Thank you!!
