What is claimed is: 1. A riser for a motorcycle having a front wheel coupled to a steering assembly that is movable to pivot the front wheel and steer the motorcycle, the riser comprising: a first portion adapted to be coupled to the steering assembly and defining an axis; a carrier adapted to clamp the handlebar such that the carrier and the handlebar are fixedly attached to one another; and a locking member interconnecting the first portion and the carrier and movable between an engaged position, where the position of the carrier is fixed relative to the first portion and a released position, where the carrier is movable along the axis relative to the first portion, the locking member including a plurality of balls that are movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. 2. The riser of claim 1, wherein the balls are spaced apart from one another along the axis to define at least two rows of balls. 3. The riser of claim 1, wherein at least a portion of the locking member rotates about the axis to move the locking member between the engaged position and the released position. 4. The riser of claim 1, further comprising a biasing member that biases the locking member toward the engaged position. 5. The riser of claim 1, wherein the first portion includes a riser post that defines a plurality of fixed, discrete handlebar setpoints spaced apart from one another along the axis. 6. The riser of claim 5, wherein the handlebar setpoints each include an arcuate groove that extends around a circumference of the riser post. 7. The riser of claim 1, wherein the first portion includes a lower bushing and an upper bushing that are adapted to engage the steering assembly, wherein one of the upper bushing and the lower bushing is substantially less resilient than the other of the upper bushing and the lower bushing. 8. The riser of claim 7, wherein the lower bushing is manufactured from a resilient material and the upper bushing is manufactured from a metal. 9. A motorcycle comprising: a front wheel, a steering assembly including a handlebar that is movable to pivot the front wheel and steer the motorcycle, and a riser adapted to support the handlebar, the riser including: a first portion coupled to the steering assembly and defining a first axis; a first carrier adapted to clamp the handlebar such that the carrier and the handlebar are fixedly attached to one another; a second portion coupled to the steering assembly and defining a second axis, the second axis spaced apart from and substantially parallel to the first axis; a second carrier adapted to clamp the handlebar such that the second carrier and the second handlebar are fixedly attached to one another, the first carrier and the second carrier movable along the first axis and the second axis respectively to adjust the position of the handlebar relative to the first portion and the second portion; a first locking member interconnecting the first portion and the first carrier; and a second locking member interconnecting the second portion and the second carrier, the first locking member and the second locking member each movable between an engaged position and a released position, when in the engaged position the positions of the first carrier and the second carrier are fixed relative to the first portion and the second portion respectively, and when in the released position the first carrier and the second carrier are movable along the first axis and the second axis relative to the first portion and the second portion respectively. 10. The motorcycle of claim 9, wherein each of the locking members includes a plurality of balls that are movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. 11. The motorcycle of claim 10, wherein the balls are spaced apart from one another along the respective axes to define at least two rows of balls. 12. The motorcycle of claim 9, wherein at least a portion of the first locking member rotates about the first axis and at least a portion of the second locking member rotates about the second axis to move first and second locking members between their respective engaged positions and released positions. 13. The motorcycle of claim 9, further comprising a first biasing member that biases the first locking member toward the engaged position, and a second biasing member that biases the second locking member toward the engaged position. 14. The motorcycle of claim 9, wherein each of the first portion and the second portion includes a riser post that defines a plurality of fixed, discrete handlebar setpoints spaced apart from one another along the respective axes. 15. The motorcycle of claim 14, wherein the handlebar setpoints each include an arcuate groove that extends around a circumference of the riser post. 16. The motorcycle of claim 9, wherein the second portion and the second carrier are substantial mirror images of the first portion and the first carrier respectively. 17. The motorcycle of claim 9, wherein the steering assembly includes a triple clamp and the first portion includes a lower bushing and an upper bushing that engage the triple clamp, wherein one of the upper bushing and the lower bushing is substantially less resilient than the other of the upper bushing and the lower bushing. 18. The motorcycle of claim 17, wherein the lower bushing is manufactured from a resilient material and the upper bushing is manufactured from a metal. 19. A motorcycle comprising: a front wheel, a steering assembly including a triple clamp and a handlebar that is movable to pivot the front wheel and steer the motorcycle, and a riser adapted to support the handlebar, the riser including: a first portion coupled to the steering assembly and defining a first axis, the first portion including a lower bushing and an upper bushing that engage the triple clamp, one of the upper bushing and the lower bushing being substantially less resilient than the other of the upper bushing and the lower bushing; a first carrier adapted to clamp the handlebar such that the carrier and the handlebar are fixedly attached to one another; a second portion coupled to the steering assembly and defining a second axis, the second axis spaced apart from and substantially parallel to the first axis; and a second carrier adapted to clamp the handlebar such that the second carrier and the second handlebar are fixedly attached to one another, the first carrier and the second carrier being movable along the first axis and the second axis respectively to adjust the position of the handlebar relative to the first portion and the second portion.
