Control, Style and Precision-

" the Core of Every Ride "

Le Pera Reaffirms Commitment to Supporting Older Models

Basket Weave
That is what Utah based Kraus Moto says about the technology that is at the core of every Kraus product – " control, style and precision ". With these risers they say they took " our proven best modular Isolated riser system and added an aggressively styled integrated digital gauge mount Core Top Cap that creates the cleanest setup yet." Kraus ' proprietary Isolated technology puts the bushings in the top of the riser to limit flex while providing vibration isolation to the bars. " This setup allows the absolute best riding experience because of the control that is easily and precisely transmitted to the front end. " Height and straight / kickback options allow for a
dialed-in modular setup and can be altered to fit the rider ' s needs. The Core Top Cap houses a OEM or Koso aftermarket gauge in a bold precision shape. The entire riser and gauge is in a compact, tight package to clean up the cockpit." Utilizing the supplied billet bushings, Kraus Isolated Riser Technology is designed to be solid mounted to the top triple tree, creating a much more rigid bar setup, producing far more reliable suspension and braking control. " As for vibration dampening, we relocated the rubber bushings just below the handlebar and inside what we call our riser midsection. Our proprietary use of these rubber isolators drastically reduces the amount of unwanted leverage being placed on the bushings, as well as creating a much more solid bar feel, giving you greater confidence in your bike ' s handling. The OEM Softail digital gauge fits perfectly, or you can run this setup on your Baggers, Dynas, etc with the optional Koso D2 aftermarket meter. They are
offered in 1 " and 1-1 / 8 " th bar clamping sizes and feature " light and compact precision-machined billet aluminum construction." " The central mounting point makes for clear gauge visibility," and they are available in Black Anodized or Machine Finish in Straight or Kickback for an extra 1.5 " of reach. Wiring slot in the center of the riser body allows for easy installation and clean wiring; features include increased bushing life and reduced maintenance needs. Fitment includes all Harley Softail Models 2018 and up with the HD digital gauge- Standard, Street Bob, Sport Glide, Lowrider ST etc., and for Baggers, Dynas, Sportsters, and earlier Softail models Kraus offers a gauge conversion with the separately sold Koso D2 meter. " Most Softail applications will require an extension harness( KR-NSXH-3201 or 20-A91803A are available) and 8 "+ Risers for Baggers may require an additional extension harness( 20-A91803A); available in both 1 " and 1 1 / 8 " th bar clamping sizes to allow for use of stock bars and aftermarket bars. " Our kickback and straight risers are modular, meaning you can swap out just the legs should you decide to run a shorter / taller rise down the line. Remember, all Kraus Motor Co. products are designed and engineered to be compatible with OEM fitments."
