Got Gilles, LSL and jack Lilley on 3x955i bikes and promach on 675 al reverse shift and fully adjustable. Acculine on Ducatis Gilles are beautiful, and give 20-40mm back and 10mm down to 20mm up The LSL go back and up by up to 40mm and 30mm respectively. The jack lilleys are nice as well but also up and back only. Sato make some beautiful ones..back and up as well Attack are wonderful though not adjustable and are up and back again..pair on E-bay.com USA at the moment Acculine are beautiful and fuctional..not sen for triumph, but haven't looked that hard. Promach. fully adjustable;.OMG these are the best ever, beautiful and work so well. Fit 675 may get some for 955i. Also reverse shift... that works for me...nice.

Vince - you lightweight, do I have to do all the work around here? LOL Jack up plates are cut alloy/ss plates that bolt onto the frame where your OME footpeg assembly normally bolt onto - they usually have quite a few drilled out holes extending to the rear which will allow you to bolt your original assembly back on to them - but further back and higher - so essentially allowing you to turn you standard pegs into rearsets - I actually got around to designing a set - but ever got them made. The Jack Lilley rearsets had these plates - and they sell them seperately for around £65 - but check that the stock assembly will fit. Look like this -- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Jac.....p3286.m14.l1318

My son put expensive Gilles on his '00 'tona, after much dicking around with the adjustments, he finally settled on the 'absolute perfect' position, when taking measurements, he was within 1/2" of factory pos. - cool huh??? Personally, I like the OE stuff. - I retrofitted the early set-up with relay rod to both my '00 and my '04, although I did fit 675 pegs, - they do for your feet what Pazzos do for your hands. For the price of Gilles you can damn near get an Ohlins It's like with wheels. - I'd really like to get some cool/better(?) wheels!! But I have a hard time plunking down 3500 bucks for a set of BSTs, - and there really isn't anything else out there I consider any tastier that the OE wheels.

Thats what they have been designed for, i need to redo the drawing to sort out the layers so my CAM program will understand it (it sees the layers at the moment but won't cam the holes)There won't be as many holes and i need to sort out an extension for the shift rod on the early models and then do a test cut. The extension will probably just be a slim hex bar drilled and tapped to fit the existing rod.

X Sounds good. I didn't realize that you made them as well, and via a programmable tool. Marvelous. How much would they set me back for a pair ? Many thanks Vince

J I am on the cusp. So to speak. However before I burn my bridges it may be worth trying the jack up plates and retaining the Anglo Saxon bike icon. If this fails then I'll probably be dressing in black and joining in all things Romanesque... may even start smoking clove cigarettes and joining some foreign forum E

i have the gilles sets in black, the position is fine for me but they do catch on the swinging arm if you go all the way back. they look very good indeed i think. over all im glad i bought them but they are an expense

James you can cure that with a couple of wider spacers; from 10mm to 14mm does it.
