VFR bars vs. risers

I'm considering either switching out to VFR bars or installing risers.

Can anyone tell me what are the pros and cons of each? I'd rather stick to risers if they do the job (i.e. provide the extra height as the VFR bars) as their much cheaper and I could probably do it myself.

Are there any safety concerns with using risers? Does any part need to be modified/tweaked, no matter how minor?

Thanks!
