thanks for any help, i'd prefer the second option because they make different heights to suit my comfort, but we will see how lucky i am

The bottom part of the mounts are not removeable from the stem

You could always customize your stock stem, or flip the bucks for an aftermarket stem...
Anti vibe stems are a good investment.
What size bars are you looking to run anyway? Cause there is really no difference between a fatter bar, and a 7/8 bar. Other than the look...

i dont want to pay for a steering stem, thats for sure, if it were a 450 or something i woudnt mind, but not for the warrior. i have some assorted lengths of different diameter d.o.m. tubing so i think i'm gonna cut and weld a section in, i'm thinking 3 inches, but i may try spacers at first to find the height i want then modify the stem.

i'm going to run tag bars, 1 1/8, but they are pretty low compared to my bars i have now. im not used to all this +3 or whatever with steering stems and swingarms and all coming from dirtbikes lol

Well the tag bars taper from 1,1/8" to 7/8 so you can use standard grips. But I would just use the adapters you showed on your first post. They should give you at least a +1 bump. And making your own extended stem shouldn't be to hard if you have the material. Just cut the flag, and mount off your stock stem, and make a new one.

I would also look into how wide the tag bars are? Bikes with twist throttles don't need wider bars to accommodate for a large thumb throttle, and the bigger master cylinder to stop 2 wheels. I would look into that first. They might not fit..

Bike bars are actually wider

 

[DeadLastRacing]

that one will rise the bar up by the width of the bottom adaptor.
