Will gave Steve a PH this morrning to see if he had any of the Rearsets he had for sale for my Aprilia & he had a couple of sets so jumped into the car & headed up to Hamilton to his shop & had a look at them & a quick chat then paid the man for a set & off back home . Very happy with them as it will get my bike back on the road after one of my after market ones broke a mounting plate & the company that sells them is less than helpfull about get a new mount . Will put them on tomorrow & try them out . Heres a couple of pics of them anyways

Look at the picture CNC Rearsets aren't cheap from Germany . Glad I didn't pay for them , but are stuck trying to fix them now Bugger !!

Well went into town & brought some Black Cap screws as I don't like the look of Silver ones against black frame etc , Fussy I know ! Bolted the new Raipdart rearsets onto the beast which fitted up Premo so are very happy with that & set the adjustable pegs & end of shifter / brake peddle to suit . Pics show them on bike but will have my blue brake / gear levers when Steve does another Anidizing run of them as he didn't have them in stock yesterday so gave me the plain Ally one to have till he gets my blue ones done . Now that was very Kool of him to do !! Ride once Wifey gets home & will post up on road feel & control of them .

those look AWESOME!!!!
Just a random question... did the foot pegs come with the rearsets? (I know possibly a yes... but I have those same pegs on my bike and want some new ones but havn't been able to find them anywhere)

Well had a good try of them tonight & thumbs up to F1 Engineering . Have adjusted the gear end & brake a couple of times on the ride around as it is hard to set up sitting in the shed but are now just about perfect one more tweak & will be Mint . Pegs offer great feed back & great grip for the bottom of ya feet & don't flex like some I have tryed . All in all a bloody good after market set up for what I think is not to bad a price considering they come with everything . A++ from me

Now all you need is a test run to Whanga?
Rearsets look great, but so did the $1200 dollar ones it is a shame they broke.
I delt with F1 for crash bungs on the SV, great guy to deal with, I had a small problem ith the fitting but with one phone call they made up a selection of washes to solve the problems, put them on the corrier and it was all fixed
Would happily recomend them to anyone

Have E-Mailed the makers of MR EVO Rearsets in Germany & are waiting for reply , they have all the spare parts so should beable to put back on when I have mounting plate . In the mean time have my work looking at CNC machining a new plate also for something to do .
