Rear sets - anyone used these?
 

Before I waste time chasing these, has anyone used these rear sets?

Those are for the RC51, won`t fit on VTR.....

The listing is a bit confusing though you are probably correct.


Adjustable Billet Alloy Rearsets Honda VTR1000 RVT1000R RC51 SP1 SP2 Silver

the bike was known as the RC51 (or RVT) in North America only, elsehwere it was the called the VTR1000 SP-1 and SP-2

You're right, but when was the last time you saw rear sets, this nice looking, that cheap ?

Umm. Now that you mention it...

I looked into the Cycle Pirates adjustable peg solution but wasn't sold on the idea. I was looking for something a bit more affordable that the Gillies, etc. I don't have the spare time to prowl Ebay waiting for a set of real reasets to come up.

Thanks for the info. Guess I'll keep looking.

Coerce makes some too, believe they are $360 on eBay...

I run the coerce ones they are pretty nice and simple. not adjustable but you get what you pay for I guess.

i have them also... ebay for $100 :).

i'd say i'm pretty happy with the new peg location.

$100 = Not fair.

Actually they do fit... ;)

Those are the very same one's that I have on my bike, minus the black anodizing... (I choose the CBR1000RR one's)...

The bearings they come with are utter crap, not sealed, but once you replace those, the rest of the work is quite nice...

A little confusing here. Which ones work. The ones in the original post? The same company as the original post but the 1000RR rearsets?

Sorry... ;) I was half kidding...

On my bike... Any of the above... On your bike, neither...

My rearsets only cost me 2 bucks and a little time. I got a piece of 1x1/8 stock aluminum from Lowes, cut off a 1 1/2 inch piece, drilled holes in each end, then removed the lower bolt from the stock pegs, swung the entire setup to the rear a little bit, then used the piece of aluminum as a spacer. This effectively moved my footpegs back and up about 1 inch each. Why spend big bucks when a few dollars and a little time is all it takes. :D

NCDAVE- could we have a picture of yours?

I knew someone on here had made em fit, lol, you were the first suspect.

Tweety, did you happen to make a template? Or have the dimensions recorded? I'd love to get an adapter like that made.

Why?! :rotf:

I have the dimensions and a couple of paper templates... Somewhere... I'll go look...

What about robby moto engineering? Anyone ever use their rearsets?

I can't fin any of the Robby Moto one's that are adjustable... Just a fixed set with the pegs raised and moved back... Same for Coerce...

Is that all you guy's want, take a plate like mine and add the OEM rearset from a CBR929RR and you are set... Drill the holes where you like...

That's what I would like. The templates for the plates that the axle bolt goes through. After that, it looks like you drilled and tapped, and used an adjustable rearset. Little bit of thread locking compound, and should be all set.

Thanks again Tweety.

Don't have access to one here at work, but I'll post one tonight.

Ummm.. Dunno, there was just this wierd de'javu tingling on me spider senses' :crackup:

picture of both sides.....

Clever move Dave :)

Not my idea...I stole it from Nathan here on the forum. MUCH cheaper. :)

Maybe I should start manufacturing them for 20 bucks a set. :)

In all honesty, I'd be happy to make a few crude sets and mail them out if anyone wants them. I have some left over aluminum stock and a drill press in the garage. :)

I have them too. I like'm alot:), wish they had sealed bearing though.

Nice to see some options... I am going to mock up something in Mastercam that looks like tweety's adapter and sick the Excel on some 1/2" plate. Should have thought of that before I spent 3 hours tig'in the LH peg back on.

yeah. thanks for the acknowledgement and i learned it from another forum, another honda, and it sets your feet essentially even with the top of the swingarm> so about an inch rearward and an 1.5" upward. What's really good is it costs nothing and is easily reversible if you decide you don't like it. A win win IMO. Just be sure you to drill the pieces that move it rearward the same so both sides will be equal. I love em and if you drag these, you will be horizontal shortly thereafter. Adjustables may give you more options, i guess.
