Has anyone noticed or had experience with these reasonably priced aluminium rearsets from Poland yet? The zloty doesn't hold up well to the greenback at the mo'.

K100

K75

Spojrz (have a squiz).

Not sure what you'd do for a shift lever.

Another option is to run K1 plates.  They'll "bolt right up" to any K tranny and use the usual rear brake setup and the K1 gear shift setup.

I ran a K1 setup on one of my K100RS4Vs for a while.

Have a look at what he calls a K75 kit. The shift and "break" (he has since fixed the spelling) lever are there. Check out his website: dixerparts.com
I also wrote to him asking why the K75 rearsets would not also fit a K100.

No use to me the old knees don't bend that far for long.

The problem I ran into with rearsets was that I was too used to where the pegs normally are so every time I left from a stop I'd try to put my feet on pegs that weren't there anymore.  affraid 
I suppose I could've gotten used to it but the rearsets didn't seem to make enough of a difference to make that worthwhile.

(Although for some odd reason that's not been an issue for me when riding my K1. Maybe its where the fairing lowers make you put your legs that make it work OK on that bike.)

He confirms, for those interested, that the K75 kit also does K100, and no reason it wouldn't fit K11.

I too don't want or need rearsets, but I am hunting for smaller, solo footrests for rider only for Herr Big Block.
