need ninja 250r rearsets

[Chaderotti]

Hey guys,

I snapped my right rearset today. What should I do? Call up wreckers and pray, or go to a kwaka shop and get stock rearsets? I could imagine stock rearsets would be over 150+ for god knows why. On ebay there are 'blingy' (ugh) rearsets for about $150+ free shipping... But that means I'll be targeted by PSB 250 hate crew.

I can wait 2 weeks for shipping, but at the same time I can't.

It's a bugga that the next couple of days will be absolutely fantastic weather

Call up both and then decide.

[Chaderotti]

Called up a Kwaka shop and he said they're roughly $450-$500.

Any wreckers open on a Saturday?

How do u mean snapped it? The bracket? The bolt? The peg?

[Chaderotti]

The mount just past the mounting bolts

Ok. If you can't find anything could always try and get it welded as a temperory fix. But would definitely get a replacement as soon as you can.

[Chaderotti]

Called up 2wheel wreckers and maddington wreckers. Mark at Maddington said I could get it welded back together for about 60 bucks. 2wheel wreckers haven't wrecked any ninjas.

I think I might just order the 'blingy' (yuck) pair of rearsets off ebay, they're about $150, and be off the bike for 2 weeks. I just can't justify $400 on rearsets.

Anyone know of where I could get it welded temporarily?

What about this?
Reckons he's got most parts.
Kawasaki Ninja 250 2009 front brake caliper, lever, hose and disc assembly | eBay

Or here?
Various 250 ninja parts | Other Motorcycles & Scooters | Gumtree Australia Kwinana Area - Leda

Otherwise, east coast wreckers?

[Chaderotti]

Thanks a lot for the links Andrew.

Contacted both. Left a voice message for the number on the gumtree ad so just sitting tight for now.

Also be aware that anything aftermarket is not going to have the mount for the rear brake light switch. You can get around this by getting a hydraulic switch banjo bolt for around $30. Not hard to fit - PM me if you need to do this and I can assist.

Ahh, well you saved my bacon. Was about to pull the trigger on the ebay jobbies. Haven't heard anything back from anyone though.
I'm just in a position where I can't quite afford a lot. So I'll have to keep looking for something cheap or a wrecked ninja

[darkfibre]

Why don't you do an emergency fix for now. Drill some holes in both pieces and bolt a solid piece of metal across it.

Kind of like the way they join broken bones with titanium.

[Chaderotti]

The way it snapped I highly doubt that'll be possible unfortunately.

[Chaderotti]

Found a place that has the mount that I need.

It's 80 bucks + 30 for shipping. I think it's from America so it'll take over a week to get here.

Should I fess up the extra 80 for the ebay jobbies + banjo pressure switch thing?

[Chaderotti]

Called up Mack1 in Midland again. They have one last right rear set mount which is great. It's $126 bucks, a bit steep for my liking, but I can pick it up there and then and be back on two wheels.
