Anyone tell me how to make one of these. Thinking all I need is a pipe with with a large thick washer at the end and a threaded bolt into the handlebar end. Working on 2021 r1250rt

Re: Handlebar puller
Used this guide to help remove the switch gear.
The small tourque tool size is T5.
Had to sand a bit of paint off and throw the bars into the freezer to get them to fit into the new risers.

Re: Handlebar puller
Some photos . The only downside in relation to where they are currently placed is that I can not rotate the front brake lever as far forward(down) as U would like. Hits the risers. I have set the risers up so they come back towards me a bit as well. If I was to make them straight up I don’t believe this would be an issue. Only time will tell.

Re: Handlebar puller
I made the tool very cheaply. 25.4mm pipe - was only 1.2mm thick. Like a curtain rod. Cut it to length - found a couple of washers and bought some bolts as I didn’t have a correct size one.
Switch gear removed and pipe slides over bar. Bolt pulls it out. I had a couple of spare washers which was handy because they got bent on each bar. Put some tape over bar so no scratches.
I got the risers from Ali express - seem ok to date.
