  1. FOOTPEGS

    You could fit some Raask rear sets? That's what I did. They are a little bit high, but I like them. Rear set is a bit of a misnomer - I'd say they were normal position for a non-cruiser.

  2. Hi to everyone from the sunny UK

    I like the rearsets, yes. To be honest "rearset" is a relative term, they only bring the pegs back to what I'd call a "normal" position. The only issues I have is that they are a little bit high and fold up but not back - my plan is to modify them so that they are at least an inch lower and fold...

  3. Hi to everyone from the sunny UK

    Hi Ant - I'm all the way over in Haywards Heath! Looks like the weather changes for us this weekend:(:(:( Like the footpegs on your 2007 - mine came with footboards, which I didn't like. Now running Raask rearsets!

  4. Replacement Rear Shocks

    Seems like Progressives are very popular as well as Hagons. I think we can probably agree that any decent aftermarket shock is a significant improvement on the OEM's!? Whatever length you go for.

  6. Fitting Raask rearsets - How I did it...

    I've fitted the Raask rearsets (this description was very helpful) I'm please with the position of the controls, but they are about an inch higher than I'd like. Has anyone tried fitting lowered pegs to Raask rearsets? Which ones? Thanks

  7. Replacement Rear Shocks

    OK, I know that the benefits of replacement rear shocks has been well covered, and I add my enthusiasm for Hagon Nitros to the list. But I also want to say how pleased I am having gone for 340mm long shocks rather than the standard 320mm (for a Classic). I think the bike has a much better stance...
