Hi All, thanks for letting me in, been on the monster 1200s 2017 for just over 2 years and love it, always a twin.
Just had the desmo service done.
Just looking however to give my belly some room and put some bar risers on, being 5.8" just need the bars closer, also looking at black bars.
Not much spare on the cables but may get about 1 to 2", without snagging.

please let me know if you can recommend a riser, with out any alteration and also what bars.

Thanks again

Welcome aboard.
There's a reasonable choice of manufacturers who make riser kits. AEM, Rizoma etc.
As for handlebars, I believe Rental offer a choice of styles. Probably best to research the offset available to suit your needs. Riding position is a subjective area. Personally I prefer a flatter bar on my 1200, but I'm 6ft, and like to stretch to the bars.
