Re: Rearsets
 

is the curvy and the pointy eye 2 eye hole not the same? 55mm the pointy is i think the curvy is the same is it not?


i have gsxr ones on my pointy so if the curvy is the same 55mm then gsxr ones will do or the GBmoto pointy ones.

JHS Racing

GSXR SRAD ones will fit the Curvy SV650.

Re: Rearsets
 

Just got an email from GB Moto - they do fit the curvy!

Re: Rearsets
 

The GB motos do look nice, but going by the pic I found of them fitted, they don't look like they will give you much rear-set!! (positioning wise, that really doesn't look any real advantage over stock!) ... its almost as if the bracket is up the wrong way too? .. the peg-to-bracket length looks very short too ...

So I agree, they look ace for the money build/looks wise, but they don't look up to much to the job in hand i.e. moving your foot back and up ...

To demonstrate what I mean, here are some giles rearsets ... and they are not even on the most rearward and/or the highest setting!! ...

Here you go, some jacked up properly 8)

p.s. never used the GB's so only going on what I see and I really don't see any proper gain over the jack-up plates you have now!!

Re: Rearsets
 

Just found this chart for the Giles:-

So you are getting 60mm rearwards and 66mm upwards gain!! 8)

I doubt yo are getting more than 10mm with those GB Moto rearsets by the looks ;) (I'd like to know the actual numbers, I might be surprised?!!?).

Re: Rearsets
 

Well spotted Blue - The GB Moto pegs look lower than the standard if anything!

Re: Rearsets
 

I'm no racer, I like them because I want slightly higher and further back pegs, not extreme ones, just to get my legs in the right place for comfort, also the advantage of having bearings in the levers rather than sloppy bushings.

Re: Rearsets
 

Have you got the GB Moto ones Yorkie?
Are you able to compare them with the standard ones and measure how much futher up/back the pegs go?

Re: Rearsets
 

Nope going to order them in the next few weeks though.

Re: Rearsets
 

Well Vater Moto seem to be completely trashed in this thread :cry:
Don't know why, I love mine - rock solid, great feel from the levers & very high & back cf. stock as seen below. (but I haven't crashed them )

Just compare the peg to the swing arm.
Which is why i'm confused that you don't think the GB ones are high Blue :???: look very high on the swing arm to me in that photo :???:
