Do you know the best way to bleed the rear by taking the caliper off and lifting it high and upside down?

ok,mushrooms removed and the footrest plates flipped again.
mounted as low as i could,had to bash an exhaust spring holder flatter as it hit the brake push rod.
feels much better for me,(6foot 2inch,34 inside leg)
can now ride comfortably with my toes on the pegs,felt like a jump jockey before.
did a few skids but the tyre wouldn't squeal which was disappointing,but i can live with that.

Have a look on here; I'm think they give bolt diameter and length.

People say I don't know Jack Sh1t; but I do, he lives next door.

just using the standard urine cup for now.
back brake really good ....i can do skidsSmile
had to un flip the mounting plates,i have crash mushrooms on my frame and the shins of my sidi boots
were bashing into them i could barely change gear.
might remove them,anyone know the length of the m10 rear engine mounting bolts,need shorter ones if
i  remove the mushrooms.

but overall very happy with them.

Did you fit a RSV4 rear master cylinder (With integral reservoir) or did you just reposition the original?

I just cut the old switch off - leaving some wire on the switch in case I want to refit it later and joined the wires to the new hydraulic brake switch.

They wind their way up under the seat to a connector block on the r/h frame rail. Think it's a white connector.

I cut and joined the wires on mine

I mounted mine with the plate upside down. On a Gen1 you can get them as much as 50mm lower than standard if you do that. I don't think you can get as much as that on a Gen2 from what I've seen on here due to fouling with the exhaust link pipe.

You can turn the mounting plate upside down, which drops the footpegs more, so yes you can lower them

just want to make sure before i pull the pin on buying a set .

can they be adjusted to be lower than standard,my  knee joints are getting older,an inch lower would make a great difference.

I fitted these to my 09tuono factory years ago you will not be disappointed, only mod was to reduce brake rod in length to get pedal height to my liking, best mod IMO

Adjustability is good, superb grip, comfortable for long rides, ( I'm 6'3" and I don't have a problem) but I've never subjected them to an off so I can't vouch for how they deal with that.
They look cool too....

Hey.

I've got a few questions about rear sets that maybe a few of you could be kind enough to help me out with?

1) What's the main advantage? Adjustabilty, better racing position etc?

2) As much as my bike is used for thrashing around the countryside, I do like using it to go touring a few times a year- so whats the peg position like for less race focused riding?

3) Does the lack of a hinged peg pose a danger to wrecking your leg etc if you have an off?

4) Lastly, does the peg act as a crash protector in an off or will it snap easy and/or will it bend the rear set before it's likely to snap itself?

Lot of questions I know but knowledge is power and all that!

Thanks,

Dave
