Moriwaki Rearsets
 

Well I was holding these for Naked Chef. Last I heard from him was about 4 weeks ago. I sent him a message last week asking if he was still interested and got no reply. I hope he is ok.

I have good, straight complete Moriwaki racing rearsets (ok for street, but no rear brake light).

Hard to find. Get in line. $200.

cheers,
Rand

ooohh... tasty!

So hooking up the rear brake switch is out of the question? I'm still interseted either way. Pictures?

no pix!

you could use a pressure switch banjo like this. I did that for my front master cylinder from a gsxr and was then able to have brake light activation.

Yeah, pictures!

When I've tried posting pictures on this site lately, it wants to make them small and useless.

any suggestions?
You've all seen the pictures at "my work in progress". they look like that but don't come with the bitchin bike and titanium exhaust system. But don't feel bad. I don't have the bike either.

like that?

RCVTR, all your pics on that post are good. They are thumbnails. When you click on them it opens a new window with the larger pic. If you're account still isn't working lemme know and I'll see if I can fix it.

BTW, I AM interested in these. Why are you selling them? I assume they are in good condition?

Well I guess the line starts here? PM sent.

I was trying to attach photos directly from my hard drive and they wanted to be resized. whan I did that they cam out tiny. I don't want to go to a photo host, because I'm lame and lazy. :) I don't have SH22's bag o' trix.

Whay am I selling them? Because they are sitting in a box and not zooming around a track.

May be sold...

Money sent for the rearsets. Hope they bring me luck.

Hello

Update on installing the Moriwaki Rearsets. First I received them as promised and happy with them. Upon cleaning and so forth I decided to replace the bushings with bearings. What I ended up with is 2 bearings each side total of 4 was about $ 22 plus change. Had to mill hole little less than 20mm 2mm bigger than stock. Even if you have to pay someone to mill if for you can’t be that much. So now we have 2 sealed bearings on each side
Id 8mm - Od 20mm - Thick 11.5mm
I believe the size is used for most roller blades so good bearings for cheap. Here are some pics if I can upload them right first time to try. But still need to put them on along with other stuff needing some loving care. I just took of the date feature these are up to date this weekend

would you be willing to measure a few things for me, I have access to a cnc mill and would love to cut some of these out, but i would like to copy an existing set instead of making my own from scratch

the moriwaki's look like a good compromise between race and street

let me know please, if you dont want to no problem

they look good, especially with the roller bearings, good work

if you do this, I would be willing to pay for a set pending how well they work...

once you make 1 set you might as well make 2 or 3 lol

need to make one set and see if they come out ok

Sure now is the time before I put them on my bike let me know what you need for mesurments send me your email and I will send better pics

4... 4 sets.. mwhaa ha ha ha (like the count)

lets get this ball rolling !! I'd be interested to see if they turn out keep us updated

Stumpy - I don't know where you are with this, but I too would love to help. In order to properly match the design I would need to have the parts sent to me fir measurements. Unfortunately pictures will not be enough. Send me a PM if this is something you would consider.

I was going to trace all the parts this weekend on tag board along with what ever data is needed I might be able to make a drawing of the most important parts time is the big problem training a one year old Weimaraner pointer one of my other loves of life would be a hard decision to make between that dog and bikes the wife is the hard part. Always thinking for herself not about track days what she think wast the summer at the beach. let me know what you think

stumpy sent me a bunch of pics and they came out good

as JamieD said, if I had the parts i could make exact replicas as well

but I dont expect stump to let these out of his sight

crap I would buy them from him then sell them back with a legally binding contract one week later, but I still dont think he would let them out of his sight lol, dont think I wouldhttp://www.norcal1320.com/forums/ima...lies/getit.gif

oh, and stumpy, dont feel the need to crank these out, i wont have time to even work on them for over a week, so i feel you on the time issue

is this all she wrote on this subject or what??

Neil this will be a week out tomorrow. AC stated he needed a week. I've done a little research on this and if they can pull this off it would be great. Let's give it a little more time. This could be good for all of us in the long run. These parts are the real deal and if these guys can copy them there's no copyright, trademark, nothing to stop them. Anybody that has access to the raw materials (a block of aluminum) can make the parts. The know-how of the machines and access to the machines to build them is the important part. BTW, I want a set too!

me thinks me would be interested, maybe, though I am broke now fo show....lol

I can give them what they need.
Right now I need to make the shifter & Brake pegs. Just some lath time. But I think the rearsets will get copyed but this is a real slow thing takes a long time in front of a machine. For the first one then much easer
Will make prints this week snow hit parents came over dog traning and most of all much needed sleep man I need a track day. Makes it all better.

its going to take me some time, i dont even have dimensions friom stumpy yet

even if i did I would not have the time to make them, then I have to put them on my bike, hope they fit right, then ride it to make sure they are correct

If you are interested this is not going to be a one week turn around by any means, if it turns around at all

I am not going to rush stumpy because he is doing this for free, he has all the time he needs

sorry guy's, I just got excited after reading this thread. who would'nt!! please forgive me I'll wait and watch patiently, I promise

Sent some stuff. He will let me know when he need more.
Lots of things to consider with all the things needed or wanted in a rearset. I could not do it. Hey whats the longest thread we may be getting close to it.

That's good news! I am going through my bike making several changes before the season opens and last night while finishing up my cleanup of the swingarm, I discovered a half inch crack in the top of my right rearset. It has worked it's way down through the spine and into the thicker metal about a half inch. Probably the result of a fall when the PO had it. It doesn't look like the work on these new rearsets will be just an "occasional read" for me now. I look forward to your every progress and if there's anything you guys need please post up or pm.

And that reminds me of another thing. Even before I found the crack I thought it would be a good idea to offer to share some of the expenses of the development of these sets. Others have spoken of their eventual interest in owning a set. I think it's appropriate to make the offer to share the expenses while the final product is being prepared. Even if the project fails some expense will be incurred. If the project is a success, the benefits will be shared by many.

Hey I think Nuhawk is right , I m supported that idea.

yep i should have all the dimensions i need

what I am doing is making a set that are between the coerce rear sets and the moriwaki's

the moriwaki's would require way too much machining and jigging to cut all the contours and sides

the coerce will be much easier to make but not adjustablke, so basically i will be making adjustable coerce rearsets with dimesions stemming from moriwaki, anyone confused lol

btw - I am drawing them up right now so they should be cut and tested in a few weeks weather permitting

That's what makes this forum rock and becouse its for a superhawk of course.Good people just make it better whatever you are doing.

What a great combination and makes all the sense in the world! The Moriwaki's work great and are nice to look at but they would require a lot more machine time so using the Coerce style makes perfect sense. And great news that you are moving along.

I think there is a limited but viable market for a whole host of parts that were great at the time - fell out of production, could be easily recreated (not cop**d) and reproduced. Marketing of these parts in the day of widespread internet usage around the globe was not the norm in the Superhawk's hayday. It's a whole new game out there now!

I was thinking last night that I would start a thread about the list of machined parts that I would like to have or see available. Maybe I'll have time tonight. Thanks for the update!

I'd like to see someone start machining us some 1200cc engines :) Anyone?

I am waiting with bated breath....hahah....I cant wait to see em AC...good work!

sorry to put everyone down but i think this project has been squashed

I just picked up an 05 r1 last night so rear sets on the hawk or the opposite of the way the bike is going

if anyone is interested i can still draw them up in cad and/or put machine code to them

if i have time in the next couple weeks i may still make a set just to get some extra practice on the machine but no promises
