I have been looking into that to, i like the wood craft but they have no passenger pegs, if that maters to you i think the sato is the next best. I believe that the peg needs to be up around the sing arm pivot.

May be good alternative to complete new very expensive rearsets. Foldable and 12 way adjustable pegs, mount within less then a minute and replace stock pegs.

Shiftech, those pegs look great, but are you going to do something for the brake lever too? That is what is grinding away on mine right now...

No plans for it. I did this because I wanted something for my own HM and I am in South Florida where all you get is boring straight roads so our brake levers are save

Antigrav, did you get my msg that your termi is at the dealer? (picked mine up last week)
I have Sato, and at the track they definitely grind. This is a problem, even if you hang off, the bike's vertical position widens the turn because of tire geometry.
levers grind first, so foldable levers like on KTM would be the right thing to get.

Woodcraft. Period. And if you're looking for passenger pegs, PJ's parts carries the Rizoma set.

My side stand is a problem too. I have the Woodcrafts and love them. They seem to give the most clearance of any other option, but the side stand starts causing trouble before the fun is done.
Someone needs to spend some brain cells on relocating it. Once you gain lean angle, it becomes another one of those troublesome things you can't live with but can't live without.
What was that other thing that this is often said about?
