Just thought I would show others how I covered the gap after installing a 2" riser. Its real easy with the Polaris, just add another collar, fits perfect.

looks good omotm :p when i raised my bars last year(3 inch) i also wanted the space covered,i was going to try to make one,but skidoo had a leather piece with velcro that wraps around and it was yellow cost me $25 i think

I just put Arctic Cats new handlebar set-up on my 2001 mountain cat , it raised it about 8" or so . Now I can stand on the running boards and hang on without bending over so much. It will be great for sidehilling.

8" wow thats a big raise,i take it you had to change your cables?
