I have been using RPM's risers for about 3 months and it seems to have helped with my vibration problem a little I was able to do the 400 mile ride with less numbness.

Ordered a set of risers off randy today. Hopefully will be a  big improvement. Bigger risers would be good but this is a good starting point. From what I've read it may not e possible to get larger ones. Has anyone got any other alternative thoughts?

It's always possible to put bigger ones on, it's just a matter of effort (and sense):

I was wondering who might ride such a bike, the sign in the background gives a clue.

I think the limiting factor is hitting the fairing on lock.
