I wonder if they sized the shift linkage based on the DP/Rizoma rearsets. They come with an additional lineage which is a different size than OEM, I can’t recall if it’s shorter or longer, which is used depending on which posistion and shift pattern you use.

ive seen plenty spider rearsets fitted using the supplied shift rod extension.
The brake side does need a bit of easing with the brake pipe but it will fit, so does the return spring and actuator rod.

I believe it’s longer. Would prob help but now you have to buy a new shift rod in order to get some super expensive rearsets to work. You’re throwing good money after bad.
Signore Spider, no grazie. Puoi riavere il tuo prodotto di merda.
@Vbreeze I can be your consigliere and will send them an offer they can’t refuse.

I believe Andy can can ease this longer shaft in and make it work. Puts a whole other meaning to turning one’s rod to butt up

Why? I would like to make my own parts if I had time. But if I pay these prices for some machined AL I want plug and play. If I want to mod for ergonomics or personalized idea… sure why not? But to have to, to get to minimum function? Why?
btw, how did you do new brake lines? Where did you get parts etc.? That’s my biggest challenge now.
Got some M6 right & left taps this AM.

No wait, you didn't make new brake lines, just stretched them a little? Mine seem too far away. Can you bend that hard pipe?

I did get a new brake line to get rid of the stupid standard hump that's in them and to position everything neater and better.
you don't have to make a new pipe or a new gear link rod... numerous people have fitted them from the box......
mate you are starting to sound like Super Dooper.... soon you'll be demanding your money back and then selling the item on a forum.....

I'd love to see that. What's the trick? Speaking to an engineer at SPIDER, he told me it was common to have to fit new brake lines.
? I'm open to a good idea.

Andy talks a big game of finessing ill-fitting parts but I've yet to see proof of this. I'm willing to bet the guy drops his bike off at the dealership, drops his trousers, bends over and opens up his "wallet." He's not machining anything. Guy can barely type a complete sentence

they have different types of pegs, some fit the V4R some V4S/base, some are black, some shiny….this doesn’t mean you should left alone to deal with that, unfortunately.

This gear push-rod is a good 4-5cm shorter than mine by the looks of it. Not sure if they differ from year to year, or the R is a different length to the others.
I think it's unacceptable to not include instructions or comments to give a realistic idea of what it will take to mount.
"Racing Only" isn't an excuse that flies for me.
So the Left Side needs a rod cut to measure tapped with one end right thread, the other end Left thread. Not the end of the world, but this is hours to do.
Right Side needs custom brake tubes. Also not the end of the world, but, more hours.
This is NOT A PLUG AND PLAY product. Not even close.

Super helpful 3rd photo they sent:

Calculating what it will take to return it switch to the other model and then see how that works - vs - make some custom stuff.
I like the feel, position and grip enough to do this project. Let's see how it goes. This is a trip to Florence to my favorite "Bulloneria" Nuts & Bolts supplier.
One freaking awesome thing about Italy, they still have these extremely specialized stores. A "Bulloneria" just has one category. An entire store, just fasteners. Every kind imaginable. Many they make. Flip side:
One freaking frustrating commonality, customer interface, not so much. HAhahaa.
There is a whole lot of "You just have to know" that is the standard operating procedure here applied to everything.
I too found my stock length shift rod unusable, 2024 V4R. I went to my dealer and looked at a Streed Fighter shift rod and it was about an inch shorter, very much like the picture above, PN 11712011AA. I purchased one for around $25, installed it and problem solved. I also found on the other side the stock brake plunger shaft was too short to work correctly, when installed there was too much slop before the brake actually engaged. I had a longer plunger shaft in my spare parts bin and it works like a rear brake should but again, not a plug n' play product. Pretty unsatisfactory that Spider sells this kit without even noting you'll need to customize for it to even function. Anyway hope this helps.
