Adjustable rearsets for the ZX12..

I was just kinda curious if many would be interested in them. I talked to my buddy a machinist about making them for the 12. This is just to see if enough interest. So let me have it.... And a reasonable price you all would possibly pay.............Thanxxxx

...'easily' adjustable how?...multi-adjustable for less knee bend more leg room when 'touring'?...multi-adjustable lever angle for different types of feet/boots?...I'd be interested if they're adjustable for at least these two things and if price was fair...

Rear sets using stock brackets?

After doing a Yahoo search on "adustable rear sets" and visiting a few of the websites, I started wondering. Do any of you think that a plate with a bounck of holes in it, could be bolted to the bracket's original loation and then the bracket bolted to the plate? Of course, this also brings up the issue of the shift rod (and maybe even the rear brake). Just a thought.

I'd love to get a rear set. After riding a GSXR 1000, I KNEW I had to get a set. The only problem is $$$! I know that the majority of the current rear sets are quality products and you get what you pay for, but it's just a tad out of my reach.

Here's two sites that offer adjustable rear sets that use the "plate with a bunch of holes" method. There were some other sites that their rear seats appeared to "pivot". I'm sure there are upsides & downsides to both methods. I just don't know which would be easiest to fabracate and still have a durable product.
