Default Steering Stems

I'm thinking about getting risers/taller stem when I add my new fasst flexx bars.

Do any of you run a taller stem? If so, whats a good hight for someone 6'2?

An anti-vibe stem is a great upgrade over stock. I rock the LSR stem on 2 of mine w/ a +1" high on the Shee so I can run low bars. Depends what bend thos Flexs' are but I think you should be good with a +1". Btw, STU has a good deal on em!

I run +2 on my 250r and two of my buddies also run +2 on they're yfzs and we all think it make a huge difference not only with the anti vibe, but also in overall comfort and where it possitions you on the machine. As far as 6'2" couldnt help you out there we are all under 6'

Thanks...with the +2 stem and the 1"+ from the anti vib bar clamps it should be good.

What bar bend do your buddies run?

Also forgot to mention if you are pinching pennies a Raptor 700 stem will fit a YFZ and the Raptor stem is 1" longer.
