R6 Rear-Sets Conversion Tutorial

[Half-Click Up]

For any of you interested in retrofitting R6 rear-sets to your Fizzer, I have successfully completed the job and filmed the entire thing as an installation tutorial.

Hey thanks brotha!

How has the mod changed riding position. It looks like the pegs are higher, and closer to the front of the bike? Thanks for an interesting video. You might want to 'borrow' a T handle for your tap(s). Great job on the video, btw. Stay warm out there....

They are higher and further back. Tightened up the "rider's triangle" quite a bit and provides for much more lean angle.
Peg height mimics the R6, but actual seating height per the Fizzer's design puts it more similar to the GSXR 600 in feel.
I'm liking it so far, but the real test will be on the track next season with regards to me not scraping my toes and pegs anymore!

Looking great! Keep an eye on that brake line. Having such a sharp bend is not ideal.

Yes Sir that was quickly addressed within a few days of completing this project when a subscriber pointed out the same observation.
