Rearsets

#1 Post by Falconihlist » Sat Nov 20, 2010 4:14 pm

What rearsets are recommended for our bikes? So far I have had a look at Gillies (nice but expensive) Aprilia Performance, and Bonamici (don't know if they will fit)

any recommendations or negative comments would be appreciated, as I am going to change mine in the new year.

i would be tempted to go for griff's.....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Hi,

MotoBits(?) make a set for the Falco. Only downside is that you need to replace the rear brake line with something longer, such as a clutch line.

I have a set (along with all the new lines) but just haven't gotten around to fitting them.
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

Had a look at the Motobits set, I think I am going to go for Griffs, as I prefer the heel guards and they also come in the fastest colour :smt003
