I read about that, it was effed up.
what bike are your levers from?
I've made this so far. it's fancy aircraft aluminum.

Those are some of the better looking rearsets I have seen. And I just so happen to have a little build money... 'bout $100. Hmmm....

IC those look great! the brake lever is from a cbr 600 but I would look for something different if I was going to do it again, it ended up being a pain to use. Some of the kawasaki levers look like they would work much more easily. The shift lever is a gsxr 1000 and it works PERFECTLY I just cut the original shift lever down, bent it, drilled it, and made a linkage that connects the gsxr lever to the original shift lever. it works flawlessly.

I was looking at 99-07 hayabusa rearsets

see how the levers are not on the peg? I think that would give you more pedal and peg mounting options.

That does look like a pretty nice setup, though I do like the cleaner look of the pedals and pegs sharing the same mount. The only issue with having the pedals mount on the same bolt as the peg besides getting the bushing made is to come up with a brake lever that functions well... I need to take some time and try to re work that a little bit. What I've got on the bike now works, but is certainly not ideal.

what's the issue with your brake pedal?

b82ta · « **Reply #22937 on:** January 13, 2010, 08:53:42 AM »

Well initially the problem was that the arm that the piston rod connects to was too far out in the middle of the pedal so the master cylinder would have to be mounted pretty much inside my foot. So I had a local welding shop weld on a new arm on the end. It works just fine but the master cylinder is still a little far out, stealing a little bit of my peg space. So when I redo it I'll either get a different arm that brings the mastercylinder in closer to the bike, or just keep using what i've got and have a wider bushing made that pushes the peg outward.

huh.
you have disc in the back, I forgot about that.

03-09 yamaha R6 brake has some interesting properties.

b82ta · « **Reply #22939 on:** January 13, 2010, 09:34:33 AM »

hmmmm those are interesting. I'm not sure if it would work, but before I redo mine I'll definitely look into those! I'm just not sure if I could lay the master cylinder down like that with out hitting the frame... At least with the way mine are currently mounted

How-do, you sinners.

It's been a couple of months since I've been on the forums. I was spending way too much time on the intertubes (mainly this site) and needed to take a big, big break.

Anyway, thought I'd check in and see how everyone is doing.

PILLS!! we're still here.

hey, does anyone know why "tough guys" take off their shirts when they want to fight?

I just saw a dude do it today and my friend Ari does it too, but "I don't know" isn't a good enough reason.

alltherightpills · « **Reply #22942 on:** January 13, 2010, 05:29:56 PM »

I don't know, I usually take my pants off to fight.

Industrial Cafe · « **Reply #22943 on:** January 13, 2010, 05:36:57 PM »

I told him I'd do that next time he got into it with someone.

one less thing for their opponent to hold on to, they don't want to get it ripped, intimidation
