Looking good mate!!

World really like some of those frame plates made up to have them welded onto my bike and the rear sets like yours, looks the biz mate :)

Really want my braced arm making too, its doing my tits in walking into the garage and seeing two swingarm's sat idle every time i go in the garage, might have to pay kev to cut it up and get it welded if he can fit it in

Marty,
just been comparing the position of your rearsets compared to where I have mine, and yours are a good 1" higher and more than 1" forwards. I have mine set 10mm down and 10mm back from stock so yours is fairly sporty compared to the stock position. with my long legs I am not sure I could ride your bike without my old knees complaning!

Might be someting to look at if you find the position cramped

look where the gear lever is compared to swingarm spindle and the peg compared to swing arm weld

tell me about it mate, they're a bit high for me and there not that adjustable, they were made for superbike racing, i might have to look into getting an adapter plate machined up so i can lower them and move them back a bit because after 45mins my legs are hurting, as you know i'm not the most flexible of person :lol:
in the right hands this bike could be cranked right over, i reckon either the sidestand or exhausts would touch down first....
if i knew someone that could machine me up some adapters i'd get it done sooner rather than later.... :thumbup:

the best bit about gilles, is that you can buy each piece seperately, so if your unlucky and damage one of them, the repair bill can be very low, great engineering, al i hate you :lol:

i've just fitted the powerbronze lowers, they're painted dark metallic grey, i'm waiting for some decals to turn up, nothing drastic, just some honda stickers.
