Did you ever get a placement, cost?

Goo, they're like $300-$350 my guess like the GP rod.

The catalog lists them at $215.

I cannot decide whether to run the Panigale on std shift or gp shift. Other than the Ducabike, which other rearset can be converted back and forth? Can the standard woodcraft rearset convert to gp with min part change? Who got the best deal on them?

Hi,

Just to give you a heads up that you have just opened a pandora's box. You will receive a million and one responses from every man and his dog.

Just google and pick the prettiest ones, otherwise you will be even more undecided than before you started this thread.

PS. I have Rizoma and love them

I totally agree

Gilles brake switch

Guys, I'm installing the Gilles rearsets, which seem very well engineered and so far fitting up pretty well (brake side done so far). Question is, they don't provide a spot to mount up the brake switch. I can't see a retrofit for this on the Gilles site, so suggestions welcome. Right now it's just hanging there in the lit position. if nothing else need to find a way to jury rig it closed.

You need a pressure switch banjo fitting bolt OR like me, I capped it with a rubber cap and zip-tie.

And I love my Ducabike rearsets. Almost went with Lightech but DB has better adjustability.

Thought you wanted the Ducabike ones? And you are buying for the R already?

What is the adjustment range of the Ducabike rearset relative to the original peg position?

They rated for my rear pegs, but I only use the best for the front ones - Lightech!!

The above advice is all good. Isn't it great to have choices!

I have just installed the DP rear sets which with no additional purchases allow
* std pattern shift or reverse pattern shift by simply using one linkage over another
* two functional positions high and not so high
* normal shift speed / sensitivity and faster shift speed / sensitivity
additionally the pegs are shorter and grippier allowing a greater lean angle before finding tarmac.
* depending on desired use you can even lock the pegs in a rigid state for race use verses the ability to bend up when you find max lean angle! ( I get excited just thinking about it)
* adjustable angle for your brake lever
* adjustable length on your gear change lever to suit your foot size
Machined out of billet aluminium they look superb with beautiful machine marks and laser etched part no's with manufacture dates on each separate component.
Class, Style, Functionality, Beauty and QUALITY second to none!

Enjoy your new bike brother!

Second to none except for the Lightech of course, 3rd to that behind 4Racing.

I have narrow down the Ducabike or Lighttech as well. Can anyone tell me how far you can move the pegs up for both?
