I love the look of those rearsets. If I was only riding short rides or racing, I'd probably get them.
However, I'm wondering how you like the leg position? I'm 6'3" & the STOCK pegs cause cramping on rides over 120 miles (about a tank & I start cramping up in the hips, thighs.) I'm wondering if I can find some adjustable footpegs/rearsets that would allow me to move them slightly forward @ either the same height or slightly lower...
I don't drag the stock pegs, the fairing hits first on both sides...

I'm 6'1", and the position is fine for me. That said, it is definately a change from the stock position. What it does let me do is to put more of my weight on the pegs, and move around on the bike easier, when transitioning from turn to turn.

You demonstrate an amazing amount of faith in someone who's business practices can best be characterized as 'scary'. Here's what I would do: I would willingly put $1500 in escrow, not to be released until receipt and inspection of subframe by me. I'm pretty sure I have a friend that would go for the same deal, he's the one that bought the cf tank.

Hello Tapani,
I've only talked to Rico once, & that was about a year ago. His requirements to do business are scary at best (in my view), so I have yet to order anything. If & when the communications improve where customers can contact him on a regular basis (as any business should), I will consider it.
It's a shame as I think he makes some very good products...
