Valter Moto Rearsets
Anyone used them and if so what are they like?
Reason I ask is because I need some for my CBR600 FW trackbike, but as it's a 98 model I'm having trouble finding good enough ones to fit. I've seen the quality of the 99 quid ones on ebay and they are dire - we put some on the ZX10R race bike and the brake pedal pivot was worn out in 3 meetings as there's no bearing in there. Before I even put them on the bike they needed serious mods to make them work without the rear brake sticking on and to make it possible to change gear smoothly. On top of that I was having to strip them off the bike and retighten every bolt between races - Loctite wouldn't even hold the screws and bits on because the tolerances were so sloppy.
The standard rearsets need replacing because both left hangers I have are bent and my foot slips off the peg (scary when it happens if you're knee-down), also I found myself dragging the right footrest on Oulton's hairpin and on the left at the Knickerbrook chicane, even with the hero blobs removed.
Any opinions welcome.
