Rearsets, it pays to Shop around

Postby robracer » Mon Dec 20, 2010 5:24 pm

I have another project on the boil & I thought seeing as I have plenty of time for the build I will invest in plenty of search time to source parts that are cheap & good quality.
Well it don't get much better than TYGA Performance, for example Rearsets for $230 AUS!
OK so they are not adjustable, but that is no biggie.
I thought quality might be a bit suss but for the price I was willing to take a risk.... well the risk paid off, these are fantastic!
The build is better than the generic ones that seem to be readily available through Pete & other suppliers (sorry Pete) & the biggest surprise was these arrived fully assembled including locktight (pulled one apart to check) & the overall engineering is heaps better, as in the levers are thicker & have absolutely no sideways play. They came complete.... yes complete including the cast sleeve that fits over the shift shaft & the link rods are joined with larger TNK hime joints... these are quality!
Delivery via post was 3 days :shock: & I swear they used 1/2 a roll of bubble wrap to pack all the gear I ordered :lol:
They don't have much in the way of Kaw parts but some gear might be interchangeable.
Their carbon parts look pretty good too... check em out at:

Nope, not the ZXR250 that was moved on a while back.... its residing in WA these days :shock:
TYGA do stuff for small & bigger Hondas as the big H is their main market.

They look a lot like their CBR 250 rear sets I was checking out for my racer, decieded to go the step up plate to save some cash instead, glad to hear that they are good quality if I end up getting some when funds are in better shape.

Yeah JD they do a nice set for the CBRs, infact they do a heap of stuff for them.
Oh & spare parts for the rearsets are readily available & reasonably priced :kuda:

They look great!

So to get these to fit on a Kawa you'd prob need to fab up a custom bracket then?

I need some new rear sets for my 03 6R cause my feet are too low on it.
