Clipons/Rearsets
Just got my bike back from http://www.speedmotorcyclesnyc.com/ in New York*. They installed the clipons and rearsets I bought from @Guevara.
The bike feels almost completely different. Much more flickable and tracking through turns feels different as well. I can "feel" myself sitting on top of the bike if that makes sense, which gives me much more agility. It's also much easier to drop into a tuck as my body naturally wants to move there. Super excited about the clipons and rearsets! *I also can't say enough about Speed Motorcycles in NYC. I've been there three times and they do a great job. |

I went the cheapo way and bought SV650 clipons and A&L rearset adjusters. The difference was striking and much more aggressive. One added unforseen benefit was that due to the aggressive riding position, my brother's back starting hurting when he rode it, meaning he won't be riding my baby
 Good luck with the new setup, Ride hard, Ride safe!!! |

Are there any dyi for the clip on and rear set? And does it require a lot of work I've just recentlly herd about being able to change those to make the riding a bit more like a super sports riding style and that's what I want also any recommeded brands or would it really make a diffrence should I just get the cheapest ones I can?

There are a ton of DIY threads on the boards here. I've heard good things about sportisi, woodcraft, driven, etc.
