Rearsets

Help Support Ducati Forum:

Honestly I'd avoid them. My Gilles footpegs (FTW!) cost almost as much as those rearsets. You get what you pay for. Oh, and I love how the title says "Titanium" but the details say "Aluminum." Just looks sketchy.
 
Yeah, the aluminum vs ti discrepancy jumped out at me, too, but on further inspection it looks like they are saying that they are aluminum rearsets that have been anodized to be "titanium color".

Either way, definitely seems sketchy to me.
 
Yeah, little bit misleading in the description....

@baibaicop where did you purchase the Gilles from?
 
I have those since 2/3 months ago and I love them. They look awesome and they do their job very well.

My Gilles rearsets seized on me several times.

I helped a friend install a set of these eBay ones and honestly the build quality was better than Gilles....I'm a big "you get what you pay for" fan, but honestly I think some companies are only charging more because 1) they can and 2) they're not nearly as efficient as the Chinese and Taiwanese.
 
I have those since 4-5 months ago. Improved the way I can handle the bike on the track, and is still going ok so far.
And yes, they are definitely not titanium. They are aluminium.
I changed the peg bolts to high tensile to make sure, because it is one-bolt system that does not tolerate failure. Other bolts are fine.
I also changed my rear brake sensor to pressure sensor equipped banjo bolt, spliced to the original wiring.
Use lots of loctite!
Actually, you should use lots of loctite whatever your rearsets are anyway (including Gilles).

Try browsing ebay a bit. Some of them (same ones) are priced US$99. There is a bit of price variance there. Some are priced $200+ lol!

Can't be any worse than the original ones for use and they don't look bad at all.

I think you had a thread on that? Or maybe several people? It was one of the reasons I tried out just a peg replacement instead of complete rearsets. Glad I did!

Now if Attack Performance ever puts out complete rearsets for the Panigale that will simply force my hand! The grip, comfort, tactile feel, build quality and confidence they inspire are second to none IMHO. They were my favorite bit of kit on my racebike back in the day.
