Well my new rearsets arrived today from China after only 4 days from ordering them £120 free postage too They also have the facility to change to reverse shift pattern, which I use and much prefer. They will be getting installed this weekend, so I'll be posting photos of the fitting process and before and after shots. At first impression, high quality cnc work good finish and all A2 stainless bolts.
They look really good. Be interested to hear what you think of them when fitted. Did you get them off fleabay, mate?
Yes I did, I have bought Chinese rearsets before, though from another company, and they were and are excellent so I have no worries in buying Chinese stuff like this. I will give a review once fitted of course
Here is a link to them on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181021870112?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Hmmm, tempting that! Here's the link for versions to fit 09-13 Blades Adjustable Pegs Rear Sets for Honda CBR 1000 RR ABS 2009 2010 2011 2012 BLACK | eBay
I will be interested to see what you think of them as I fancy a set of these for an 09 and half the price of the ones in the uk. Did you have to pay import taxes or did you get away with it . Cheers
Never paid any thing else, came through customs ok, my last lot did too. Hopefully I'll get the chance this weekend to fit them and let folks know how they are
I'd say so Moily! Just think the website has cocked up that's all. The Blades Frame is the same from 08-2013 so there's no reason why these should not fit the 08? Send em an email if ya wanna play uber safe!
they do look good, my brother got rearsets from china too and loves them, just cant convince him reverse shift is better yet lol.
Well fitted the gear shift side today as that was the side first accessible and probably the most involved in terms of parts Starting point Making sure the main plate and linkage pivot trial fit Heel plate and peg fitted, using loctite so nothing will vibrate loose All linkages attached All done, apart from adjusting the linkage, I'll do that when both pegs are on. Time taken start to finish about 25mins, all bolts are A2 stainless and clear part diagram to show which bolts go where.
Can you not run the linkage direct from the shift to the gear shaft? Very interested to here what you think when all buttoned up & tried.
Ahh wouldn't that be nice but, unfortunately, the frame sticks out too far to run the rod across, even then the shift lever cannot be reversed because of the clutch cylinder housing. The pivot as I have and the Gilles tooling shift lever are the only options for reversing the shift to GP
I had the valter moto ones on mine and it ran across the frame for Reverse shift but what they did was skim one side of the link Rod so it didnt hit the frame, could you do the same?
