These are exactly the same as the set I just fitted to the MFP12.

For the discerning ZX12R owner.....

That's an oxymoron isn't it

Just kidding mate. They look good. I'm gonna keep an eye out for a set for the 10

hey gos what are your thought on them?

Gos did they fit straight up?? did it have an adaptor kit?? or did u have to make an adaptor plate typre thing??

Glen - this mob do ZX10 sets as well, the US e-bay site has them listed. Discerning is a word that I have trouble spelling !!

Ozzx6R - mate they are the ducks guts. I have much better control through the pegs now, mainly because of the grip from the gnurled pegs, vs the stock rubber-topped pegs.....the rubber-top is good to reduce vibes, but the 12 is pretty good in that respect, and you don't feel much extra vibration through these pegs. The improvement in gear-selection is 100% over stock. Absolutely no slop at all in the entire mechanism......gearchanges now are just a 'snick' away......(and stock was not too shabby in the first place )

Mine are set up with the pegs in the furthest forward / lowest position. Its close to the stock position, maybe 10-15mm back and 10mm up. There are 9 positions to adjust, with about 10mm between adjustments. It seems a lot easier to climb all over the bike now in the twisties ?? Just from the position and solid 'feel' to the pegs........

Narfie - bolted straight up mate. No adapter plates or any of that stuff, these are manufactured specifically for the 12. All the rearsets that this mob do are model-specific, so that makes the conversion really easy. The only things missing were some replacement bolts for the footpeg plates, to bolt them to the frame.

One thing I did forget to mention in the initial post was the surprise in the box from Thailand !!

It was a long tube, with a couple of hard-plastic fittings at either end.......I had no idea what it was, but figured it must have been something that would fit on the bike *somewhere* ??

It was a pair of front-axle crash knobs !!! I will take a picture and bung it up. Have no idea how much these cost on their own, and I didn't order any, but they were included in the package !! Gotta be happy with that.....

yea greeny banged a set on the motard.... i considered a set or 2....

thanks for the tip... i have been contemplating taking the stock peg set-up off and putting rearsets on..but i dont want to lose the rear pegs...

Gos, you bastard. I didn't need to see those.......

Just ordered a set too! How long did they take to arrive?

Mine took about 6 days from the same seller, they are pretty cool.

Anyone get instructions with these?

Reckon I can figure it out, but they would be handy!

Mine came with no instructions too. Pretty easy though, take a couple of hours - MAKE SURE YOU BLUE LOCKTITE EVERYTHING AFTER YOU GET IT INTO THE POSITIONS YOU WANT !!

The only problem I found was that the stock brake line is not long enough to have them set in the most forward lowest position.. I have mine set in the middle rearest and lowest position and they feel good. This is easily fixed with a aftermarket braided line.

Did I mention to use blue locktite, and maybe a dab of red on the actual peg on the left side..

Good luck!

hoffy i think alot of rearsets are the same with the brake line and as you said it makes it easy to justify to the mrs upgrading to a briaded line

Wattie's away interstate, so Hoffy doesn't need to justify anything to him at the moment. You'll be in trouble when he gets back and finds out what you've done though Hoffy
