    Hi all,

    I've just removed my standard rearsets to fit aftermarket items.
    There was 2 spacers between rearset and frame on this side only.
    Do I keep these in place?

    oh 2015 model

    Many thanks Richard

    Have you got aftermarket exhaust? My akra came with spacers to give end can enough clearance from swinging arm.

    it was a damaged bike! it had no silencer. With lightech rearsets and full arrow system it seems to line up fine.

    Regards

    Maybe the damaged bike previously had a damaged aftermarket can. The spacers are not standard.

    Ian is right, they were added because of the Akra.
    They give the right spacing for the standard rearsets, I had to put them on otherwise the brake action fouled the exhaust with my Bonamici Rearsets. the best bet is to trial fit with and without the spacers.
