So. any you guys recieved a special package from china yet and have some feed back for us?
Not yet, they're still making their way through China, according to tracking. Did you order a set?

Yes that. Grab it with some vise grips and it will unscrew. Gives you a bit more clearance
I thought of taking them off but I think if I do. The first thing that will touch either the foot brake or the gear shifter
Pegs will still touch first. If you get your shifter or brake on the floor, I salute you. Thats some mad riding skills!!
Trixster, How long did it take you to get these shipped to you ever since you ordered these? Also, was the install hard ? Besides tapping and that extra M6 screw. Also, do you think it would be hard to take these rearsets apart for re anno?
Hey Jumb, I ordered them on the 8th and received them on the 16th, so 8 days isn't bad from China. They were easy to install, but come with just generic instructions. So you have to figure out what hardware goes where. But they do come mostly assmebled, again I'd recommend adding thread lock to all the hardware. They are very easy to tear down, so a re anno would be no problem.
I'd recommend these to anyone, for the price, you can't go wrong. I rode down to Indy yesterday with Dr. Doom. He rode my bike for a little bit and thought they felt good too.
I wanna make a request, one more pic of the right side of the bike (brake side). But set back a little more so I can get a full view of the rearset and how it flows with the lines of the bike. If you dont mind? I really really want lightechs really badly but then again... these do save me 300 dollars. Also it goes against my philosophy about chinese parts being on my bike.
Also question for ya... there is no additional parts we need to buy to install these right? cause read that vortex or lightechs, i think you have to buy a new brake spring or a new brake switch to complete the install.
