Customising your Bike - the Rearsets

Customising Your Bike - The Rearsets
Bike customization is about making your bike reflect you as an individual. This can be done by simple bolt-on replacement modifications, or the more advanced custom paint-scheme and custom stickers, right the way through to major frame and hardware modifications such as street-fighters and extended swing-arms etc. This morning I want to introduce and identify the availability one simple modification that will effect how you interact with the bike, as well as make your bike that bit more like your own.

Replacement Rearsets.
Rearsets are another simple, but very important part of your bike. They provide support for your feet, influence your body position on the bike by moving your weight forwards or backwards, may allow you to change the shift pattern from Standard to Reverse (GP) shift. In addition they effect cornering clearance of the bike, and can provide some form of protection in the case of crashes if they have solid mount pegs, rather than the factory standard spring mount pegs. The range of rearsets is huge. And it is too difficult for me to summarize all the options for each manufacturer. Below is some of the options available. This will be updated as new options are identified…..

Acculign. Limited to Ducati superbikes and a couple of Aprilia and MV blow-ins, but very pretty.

the problem i have found with aftermarket rearsets is they all seem to have rigid pegs which is fine but in the event of a heavy fall on the track, which lets face it does happen sometimes, they have a tendancy to snap off instead of folding back like originals

MikeC · 06-07-2008, 07:33 PM

Umm, for a lot of them that's completely intentional. You snap off a peg rather than bending something important or, like i did, bending the footpeg into your exhaust. i know i'd rather replace a $200 peg than a $3000 exhaust.

can anyone find any for an aprilia rs 125 2007, looked all over google with no luck. the rear sets thems selves are good but the bit where your heal rests is plastic and it gives me the shits

I have a black pair on the R1, TechG Racing rearsets. They're inexpensive and look like many of the top brands, with readily available spares.

eBay Store - TechG Racing: Adjustable Rearsets, Awesome Look, GSXR @ USD259 to USD279 a pair

Not exactly a rearset, but for those older or more unique bikes (like my CBR400RR), rearsets aren't really an option or aren't available.

How to get the rearset look and feel on the cheap? Try Vario footpegs for BMW, Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Triumph and Yamaha from AUD55.

With a different choice of colours, arrangements and looks.
