    So that I can move the bars up a little, negating the risers that sit under the bars.......

    again..

    How would this negate the risers ?
    The risers are there to retain the engagement tabs which keep the bars in the correct place.
    If you have done the yoke drop , and you have risers fitted already, then the only ways to get higher bars are :
    1) Fit vario or convertibars or similar
    2) Fit a top yoke conversion and then fit regular handlebars and new cables etc.
    3) Visit the UK CBRxx blackbird site and buy a set of "Jaws" risers, which will also come with a set of longer top caps.
    These are intended for the Blackbird, but the VTEC has the same 43mm forks.
    4) Buy an upright bike..
