CABLES RUBBING HARD Brake and Clutch
Completed the rivco touring install to find the front brake line and clutch cable tight super tight. So much so that the frame cover doesn't sit flush any longer and I've had to force it flat. Didn't want to force anything so took it off. Wanted to re-rout that front brake cable going to the brake fluid box but didn't know if that screw would start the draining of fluid. As for the clutch cable, It rubs like my x and making a mark and sound while turning lock to lock. Should have ordered a longer one from the get go but didn't measure while top was off.. Is the clutch cable length the same for road & tour? I mean if I found length for roadster could I add 2" and order? I find things harder to find with the touring. A e an enjoyable day folk's

Does anyone know if one can run the Rivco risers and also fit the Triumph front end fixing kit with the flyscreen?Not sure why they are categorized with Victory - maybe due to Metric?

Yeah no problem. The flyscreen kits come with a small wire cable guide and do not effect cable reach.
Remember their are 2 different RIVCO versions for the Roadster TR3017 and the Touring (TR3017-TR) that have very similar number codes but appear quite different. The other options for the R3Touring appear to be Thundebird accessory Chrome risers A9738165 or A9731030 and RIVCO TB017 risers for the Thiunderbird that should also fit R3T's.

Good to know. I have the TR3017 kit for my 2018 Roadster and it'd be a shame to install them and not be able to use the flyscreen too.Yeah no problem. The flyscreen kits come with a small wire cable guide and do not effect cable reach.

It's been a while, but I finally fitted the risers to my bike today.
- I ended up modifying the speedo bracket - I heated up the bends with a blowtorch, and slowly eased them around so they bent back the other way. I didn't want to muck around with cutting the rear cups or anything, so thought I'd give bending a go - worked a treat!
- rerouted clutch, brake and throttle lines around behind the triple tree, with some jiggling around, and using my Dremel tool to cut out the plastic covers a little to stop things being too tight, it all seems to fit well and not bind or stretch lock to lock.
Haven't taken it for a ride to see the difference yet (it's pissing down rain, and I can't find my brake bleeding kit to bleed the front brakes) but just from sitting on it it feels a lot better, don't have to lean forward to reach anything at all.
Attached some pics for your viewing pleasure.
Cheers!

Wasn't happy with the speedo/tacho position, so flipped the bracket, and chrome polished it all up,
much better now!

All went pretty well, see the pics above. I've found the throttle cable just starts to bind at full R lock, so may need to look at that sometime, doesn't really bother me for general riding though
