    Still buggering about looking at rearsets and going round in circles... :D

    So... if you have aftermarket rearsets on your 08> CBR1000RR could you be kind enough to post a picture and comment on how they have improved the riding position for you?

    Simply put I want my feet to go backwards and down (if possible) ... I've no idea if this is possible on the blade with aftermarket rearsets?

    Any help appreciated :)

    (oh, if you have some for sale drop me a PM!)

    I went for Bonamici rearsets. Great product, easy to fit and IMO a lot nicer than than Gilles :)

    Not the best pic but Gilles FXR Rearsets. I like them as they are simple.

    I haven't got mine on yet, but even in the box they look damn good. Check out the Lightech website. I've got the FTRHO002... they look stunning and the build quality looks exceptional.

    Had Diamond before these, aside from the hassle of dealing with them I thought they were really good value for money.

    My Gilles rearsets cracked open / apart in France a year or so ago going down a steep hairpin using the rear brake so I've gone BACK to standard ones.

    I could get replacement parts but not got round to it lol

    They did last about 65,000 miles before they failed in fairness
