Fitting rearsets to B12
Am making adaptor plates for them...
First I'm assuming using all three mounting holes on the frame is not essential, my rearsets only have two for starters and are much lighter than the originals.
Second should I make the adaptors so the rearsets stay in the same alignment as the originals? Am thinking more of the gear change mechanism.
If I bolt rearsets onto adaptors onto frame the gear change will be spaced off from the linkage the thickness of the adaptor plate?!
Will the linkages be able to cope with the extra stresses?
Cheers for any replies to such a long winded question!

Just fit water cooled slingshot rear sets that almost fit straight on, you will need a longer gear change rod any way.....ill find pictures later, done this several times 
here you go, couple of spacers on the right and they bolt on

Cheers for pics, they do look better than bandit ones but I already have some rearsets to use,
The ones on banditmania don't go back far enough for me, would need two sets bolted together!
Which may be the way forward, at least that would put the gear linkage back in alignment.
I need about two and a half inches back and two inches up.

I made these up for my b12, standard rearsets as I like the rubber pegs (less vibration) and good heel plates too. Needed longer gear linkage, works great.

 These are what I'm fitting, hole alignment matches frame, so easy adaptor to make |

I'm likin' that ... rear sets always seem to be so expensive for what they are, it's good to see somethin' from a standard bike that might fit my Inazuma. When ya get the chance FBOB, could you give us even an approximate measurement for the distance between the B12 frame mounting holes?. Must thank 'abdw' for the orginal post, wouldn't have know about this otherwise  |
