got home from school last night and decided to tackle the Rearsets.
stock rearset
first thing was to get that hunk-o-junk out of the way
I actually had to read the directions as I seemed to be a few bolts short
... turns out the Woodcraft set requires you to use some of your stock hardware:
Woodcrafts put on
I like to run a GP or Reverse shift pattern, so had to flip the knuckle, but realized it hit the front sprocket cover...
so pulled that off
which cleared up plenty of room
A quick look at the difference from stock (on the right)
and the difference in pegs
not a huge fan of the way they have the peg set up to break off, My Attack rearsets on my zx6r had a much better design IMHO. but I guess we'll see
And the brake side
same process just making sure to get all the hooks, springs, and pivots right. And yes I kept the brake switch and everything there seeing as I'll probably ride this on the street in the off season
BOOM
Another thing about these I don't like is the adjustability of the peg, not very much compared to others I've used....
So I had my friend Zach machine some risers for me! Up 1" back 1", using his OEM rearset for reference
I think they turned out great especially considering he milled it all by hand from scratch, no cnc. I'll see how they fit and go from there!
