rear sets
Whoever has rearsets,please tell me how far back and how far up they go.I was looking at the stock brackets and thought about putting on an offset adapter to make the pegs back further.Aside from the scrap metal,it would only take 4 more screws and a longer shifting linkage.I don't see anything that would impede the new position.If I don't like it, theres not much wasted.

OK,so 1" up and1" back sounds like a good starting point.I'll have to talk with the machinist to see what thickness he recommends.I'm thinking of just a plate now with 4 holes drilled,2 tapped and 2countersunk holes.The most they'll stick out is maybe 1/4".

Okay, the pics are fixed and up on the thread. Blame MSN for dumping their phot hosting for non-members.

I just got done making the plates.Iended up using 2 1/4" stock making it 1 1/2" back and 1" higher.Feels good,but I have to wait for the rain to stop to try it.I did find a nail in the rear tire.
