VFR750 RC24 6X

Unfortunately to achieve this; the design of the hangers themselves and the way the adaptors pushed them out meant the fit was a bit untidy and wide. The worst of it was the way the rear brake master and reservoir were outside of the fairing which is untidy and made removing the tail unit a bit of a pain in the ass. What we know Both overlayed OEM 2018 rearset You can see from the images above that the original footrest clears the subframe comfortably at the cost of a low peg whereas my 2018 rearset raises the peg at cost of clearance.

All of the hinge points were ball bearing too, backed up with brass bushings where needed which should make for a nice action once everything is bolted up. I had a bit of a faf getting the rear brake master to line up with the rearset bracket but thi...
