Description
Improve ergonomics and steering feel on your 2017-2023 Kawasaki 1500 SXR with the R&D Rapid Ratio Steering Plate (stock handlepole). This billet plate moves handlebars forward 0.75 inches, supports aftermarket 0/4 degree bars, and offers dual pivot points for adjustable steering ratio – all without a separate quick-steer add-on.
