If Paddy has not already done a deal on this, I have a mate who would be very interested!
Would just need to check if they would fit his cans.

Has he gone off the high mounts then??? :smt002
The ride is the reason ........ the destination is just the excuse.

He loves the look of them but can't get on with not being able to get the balls of his feet on the pedal without burning his boots!
Leaves his feet in a funny position and it's worse since his back operation.
Still looking at options for the footrests, but intially he wants to try the Rene cans with normal link pipes, and he only mentioned this to me yesterday. It looked like goog timing but just too late!
May look longer term at other options like adjustable rearsets and keeping the high level pipes, Tuono hangers might be an option as well.
He's also got some Duralamin sheet to try and make his own hangers, but it is pretty complex to do this, especially on the rear brake side.
He only works p[art time since his op, so he has plenty of time to play around making bits and it keeps him happy!
He is now much happier with the bike, especially since he moved the bars over the yokes, and thrives on the attention it gets!
