I want to add a sight tube to my '01, before I do something stupid that requires engine work.

Any recommendations on which one to purchase? It looks like the BD tube is the most common.

TIA

I have Pro Taper fat bars, I think CF Hi. I'm sure about the Hi part. The PT bracket is mounted on top of the stock bracket built into the triple tree top. So it is all supposedly a tall handlebar setup, but I want much more height. Short of finding handlebars from a 1970s Honda mini bike, how can I get 2 or 3 inches more height? Happy to buy new bars, etc. Thanks.
