What do you guys think of this setup? It looks to me like it could work. Any thoughts?

Yeah - I could make that work - using a very modified version of the stock shifter, deleting peg and sanding down to a thinner shift arm, paint gloss black, attaching a linkage to the peddle assembly - form plates and spacers, longer grade 8 bolts. That has some really sweet potential. Enjoy! Oh yeah - whats that off of? Vendor? Model Specific? Price range? EZ |

http://www.fastfromthepast.com/servlet/the-Rearset s-cln-Universal/Categories The price is the best part $170!!!! I think they look dope. Very "cafe fighter" if you ask me. I already have the linkage rod and i'm working on the plates, so I would just need to modify the stock shifter correct? I would like to use they're complete setup (shifter arm and brake arm) Could that be done? Or is that what you said above and I'm not reading it right? |

I dont see why they wont work 'as is'. The Blast brake rod will probably hook up and you'll need a rod for the shifter. You wont really know until you hook them up on the bike as to what you'll need exactly. Nice simple set-up and it should look good. |

Awesome My extensive searching seems to have payed off! Like I said I have the shifter rod so I'm nearly there. I'll do the plates and spacers today. |

Make sure you post up some step by step on how you put those rearsets on. |

The same website where I got these rearsets (in the mail BTW, I CAN'T WAIT!) also sells fork braces and clip ons. Does anyone know what size the fork tubes are? the prices of their fork braces are awesome, I'd like to try them out. Thanks. |

They also have 4 different style clip ons for 37mm forks, if I have the fork size right. |

http://www.fastfromthepast.com/servlet/StoreFront They sort their braces by bike model, so if you know what forks cross reference to the blast's then you could see if they had those. If you find a brace that would work please let me know or if you know what to look for also let me know and I'll do the searching. That site is awesome BTW. |

Has anyone come up with a good plan for passenger pegs once you have rearsets? My delay in moving to rearsets is entirely related to fact that I sometimes have a passenger and removing the peg brackets eliminates the passenger pegs as well. I have been kicking around a few ideas but wanted to know if anyone else had already tackled the problem? |

I'm having some trouble with my rearsets. The problem is that it takes alot of up and down travel to shift. Should I shorten up the shifter that's connected to the primary so it's the same length as the shifter linkage on the pegs? thanks |

The shifter connected to the primary should be as long as the shifter (linkage) on the pegs. But you can adjust the length at the primary to suit your taste. You can also adjust the angles at which they sit for different shifting. |

Thats actually pretty easy - just takes some parts sourcing. Use the front lower muffler mounting section. EZ |
