QUESTION: I am 6'-1 and 255 lbs, so what would be the overall theoretical benefit of these risers for me, when used with the stock handlebars?

Comfort? Control? Handling? etc....?

I already have the John's Kits forwards, and love them. Do the risers help with overall rider fit up, along with the forwards? Just looking for some background on how they improve rideability.

I am 6'4" and 225 lbs and have both forward controls and the risers and can say they improve fit and rideablity nicely. Only way I know of to get more rise and pullback is to install new handlebars. This is much simpler and in my opinion does the job nicely.
