Looks neat, but I'm thinkin that there's a reason we don't see cf rearsets on any bike...

Be sure and test them on a cheaper ride than your RVF...better yet, someone elses cheap ride.

VFR not RVF

Who is we? thorsten makes them

you don't see them for cost issues, they would be expensive and not as practical as cookie cut beer can sets.

seen a few too many suzuki's with vortex and wanted something unique

The 1036CS by Alex Ortner that is in our shop right now has carbon rear sets. A zilla member owns it.

I sat on the 1036CS and the GPDue when he had them at Mid-Ohio. Both felt like bicycles they were so light. So, who bought the beautiful 1036CS? Come clean and show yourself!!

gp bikes have a had a lot of carbon rear sets and rear set brackets and footpeg hangers.Carbon rear sets are like carbon bodywork ,it doesnt make any sense to cheap people.
