A structural riser system and organization for use in, and adjacent the front of, a motorcycle, to translate a steering force, which is applied to a handlebar structure, directly to the two fork legs in a front fork assembly in the motorcycle. Elongated risers in the system are anchored to the top of a triple-tree structure, and extend therefrom generally upwardly in axial alignment with the fork legs (on a one-to-one basis) to receive a motorcycle handlebar. The invented organization also provides an equipment mounting region sized to receive selected equipment. The equipment mounting region is bounded laterally by the risers, and vertically by the handlebar and triple-tree structure.

[ I claim:] [1.] An organization designed for use in, and adjacent the front of, a motorcycle, comprising:a pair of elongate, laterally spaced and generally upright and parallel, axially-telescopic fork legs, each having upper and lower ends;a triple-tree structure including a pair of elongate, vertically spaced and generally parallel triple-tree cross-members, each anchored, adjacent its opposite ends, to a different one of said fork legs adjacent that leg's upper end;a pair of laterally spaced, elongate, generally upright and parallel risers anchored to and extending generally upwardly from the upper one of said triple-tree cross-members, with each said riser disposed with its long axis substantially coincident with the long axis of a different one of said fork legs; andan elongate handlebar structure including opposite end portions joined through an elongate central portion, anchored to said risers adjacent the upper ends of the risers, with said central portion spanning the space between the risers at a location spaced above said upper triple-tree component.
