Hi Mark, Depending on your bike it can be an easy task or a challenging one. I have done it, and often times it requires lengthening cables. You can either buy a set of different bars or you can purchase an extension kit that bolts on and extends your existing bars up and back a bit.
Usually a extension of the handlebars is done more for BACK discomfort rather than hand cramps. Do you have large hands? Some other options are: 1. Larger foam grips 2. Installing a cramp buster <http://crampbuster.com/> on your throttle side If your back is good I would try some of these less-expensive options before getting into a handlebar issue. Just some thoughts.
