your views please, and i need them to replace bent ones :smt009

Re: just about to spend £160
 

as cheep rearsets go they are good. you will also need a new longer rear brake line, new bolts for the frame and a longer connecting rod.

i had a set and liked them. if you have long legs i would forget about it, you will end up with cramp after 10 mins.

Take it there no good for people 6'2" then? oh well the missus was on about getting me some gilles rearsets for crimbo but I didn't want her spending that much (cos I don't want to spend that much on her lol).

+1 to what davenumbers said, nice looking bike that bibio.

I've a set of those on my curvy, savage they are,very solid, and affordable priced.

Re: just about to spend £160
 

yup it was pretty. i had just finished doing everything i wanted to do. :-(( oooohhh well such is life. there is always my new one to do when i get it :-)) might even do some assembly vids just for the org.

Re: just about to spend £160
 

I'm 6'4" and I have them (pointy)- I suffer no comfort issues. I have them mounted on the lowest setting which is still a fair bit higher than stock.

I didn't need a longer rod either as there's quite a lot of thread available on the rose joints at both ends.

Re: just about to spend £160
 

ok so i dont need a rod? as it comes with one any way so shouldn't that be long enough

and i know about needing a longer brake line but how much longer ? (need longer for the front as well)

and what size bolts do i need for the frame and do then need to be high tensile ?

cheers

Re: just about to spend £160
 

Well, knowing what Hell are like if you order a brake line off of them it'll no doubt be about three feet longer than stock anyway :rolleyes:.
Shouldn't think you would need high tensile, not unless you intend to stamp on the footpegs or ground them out everywhere.

Don't take my word for it though I may be talking b0ll0x :).

Off topic, but what you going for Lance, another sv?

Re: just about to spend £160
 

lol ok and looking at the pic on ebay they use the standard bolts any way, and im geting cobra lines (not doing front yet as i cant be bothered) and a banjo switch for the brake light

hopefully this will give me a better feel on the bike than i have now , the problem with the naked is that the pegs are to far forward and to low to be in a "go fast" position
