Rizoma, Gilles, Valter...

When it comes to rearsets which would you choose? Rizomas and Gilles are pretty much the same price. Valter is cheaper but I hear it is not adjustable for the s2r s4r. My s2r is used for the street and canyons no track days so far. Not to say I never will but I probably wont. So which rearset would you guys choose. Or you can add another brand in there. Looking to spend no more than 600.

Thanks

Since my wife is vertically changed, we put the Rizoma rearsets on her S2R to move the pegs back a bit. I found look, feel, and quality was all top notch.

I do like those metaltechs but they are just a bit out of my price range. Thanks though.

Its really tough to choose some over the Rizoma ones. But I must say, the MetalTechs are pretty nice as well.

Here are the Metaltech Rearsets. There is a pic at the bottom of that page of them installed on one of our buddies Monster.

Here are the Rizoma Rearsets for the S2R (pic of them installed on page)

The attached image is the Rizoma Rearsets installed on our Monster 1100S.

Few things I like about the Gilles ( one of the reasons we carry them as well)

5 Year Warranty
Every nut/bolt/piece is available to be ordered if ever needed, comes with detailed parts list
European TUV approval, meaning tested and certified.
Made in Europe and not Asia.

I ended up getting the Rizomas from Monsterparts. I hope theyre as good as the Gilles, especially since it was only a 10.00 price diff. Im not sure if they have all the pieces like the Gilles does. Hopefully I wont need those pieces but if I do I hope they do sell them. Do you guys know?

Yes, you can get every individual piece, nut and bolt for them.
