3.25" riser with stock cables - Max Rise

There's always talk about the max riser height you can have with stock cables. Well I've put a Powermadd pivot adapter and a 2" riser for a reported total of 3.25" and I still have stock cables and bars. I had to reroute a few, but that only took seconds. Most importantly, I put my throttle cable through the air box. There's a "slit"/indent on the air box that I ran my cable along, and I was able to put the filter back on with no problems. The steering seems fine ( Not tight or pulling) but I wouldn't go any higher than this.
 

Just an additional note. I have the bars and riser pivoted forward for better powder handling. You can see in the pics that there may actually be less distance for the cables to travel than if I didn't have the pivot adapter and the bars were 3" back on the angle of the steering column. You probably would be ok with the 3" rise without the pivot, but try it out before you buy the riser.

Undo your bars from the steering column, take a three inch piece of wood and place it under your bars and test out if you actually have enough cable clearance.

IMO if you put more than 3" with cable extensions and ride any trails whatsoever you'll be uncomfortable. You'll be riding a machine with chopper bars. Your hands will be to high. However, you'd be set for powder
