Forward..but not to forward

I believe those are the RAASK adjustable peg rails in the picture.

Oops, should have read further before searching/posting but somebody may want to contact RAASK but I'm fairly sure they would be out of production. They are very cool though and in another thread he stated he would make ceased R3 exhausts if he had 12 orders so maybe the same could apply to these as he must still have the templates etc.

Also found these today on my computer again not sure of source. Giveaway might be in the pic, but didn't search sorry.

I will tag onto this thread instead of continuing with the one I have which is very similar

Just a bit of an update and a bit of info regarding forward controls.

I have been gathering info and making mock up brackets for a set I am designing, took on some info from several sources Simon being one of those. Had a chat with some people today in the fabrication industry and will have some samples made up in about a week or so (maybe). Each of the brackets are made from one piece of mild steel 8mm thick, laser cut and bent with the tightest of radius's, they should not require any gussets and can be made to suit anywhere from about 250mm forward of stock location ++. I am having mine powdercoated black but I am having three sets made the other two sets can be left uncoated so the footpeg location can be determined by the owner, drilled and then powdercoated or chromed. Depending on the desired position forward you may need to extend the gear shifter rod and also cut to length the new brake actuating rod (supplied) and re-coat them but my intention is to maintain the original shifter lever with the spline but turn it around so it actuates from the bottom rather than the top as it does in the original position. The stock rails and levers are not required as all brackets and levers will be fabricated to suit. Therefor allowing all stock parts to be replaced should you choose to.
The new brackets will mount at the front at the current location for the rails and use the same bolts, the mastercylinder bracket will mount at the rear rail mount and the stock covers can be used for reservoir and the master cylinder, this rear bracket will be tested to see if it requires a gusset for stability as it will be no longer attached at the front, this will be done prior to me coating mine, should it be required they will all be fitted with it. I have no idea at this time what the cost will be but the main advantage I see is I can have a custom fit for the peg and lever position, the other advantage is that as they will be supplied "raw" they can be chromed or powder coated in your choice of colour or if you know what position you want the pegs I can drill and get them coated for you.
There are many designs of foot pegs available, I have a supplier in the States who is excellent with prices and delivery for aftermarket parts, mine will be coming from there which are already black powdercoated and shifter peg and brake peg to match you will see them when the pics are posted

Photos will follow as soon as I get my set made up and on my bike, but I must stress that this is not my job, its a hobby to design and put useful items into production so please bear with me when I have time they will be worked on, hopefully very soon.

Hey all, ok just finished mock-up mounting brackets and they have gone off to the laser cutter. There have been a few changes to the original design but basically not too far from what I invisaged in the first drawings. Will attach a couple of photos when the laser cutter sends them to me (got so gun-ho getting them to him forgot to take photos ) I was going to have mine all black but when I get them finished I may decide to add a bit of chrome to them as the black footpegs dont do much for me,but thats still a while off.

Hi all and merry christmas to each and every one of you

Been playing Santa myself this week and my present to myself was getting my forward controls finished, I have tried to deal with the problems that seem to be an issue with the ones currently available those being, flexing, too far forward and cost. All of the brackets and levers have been laser cut mine have been powder coated but added the chrome foot pegs as previously posted. the brackets are made of 8mm steel plate and he levers 5mm, they bolt directly to the original mounting holes on the bike and all original parts are retained allowing for refitting if required. I have to say that after riding the bike with the new controls for a few days the bike has taken on a whole new quality, the gear changes are as good as original and easy to select and while I always thought that the bike was easy to control it is soooo much better with the new controls. Leaning into corners has been comprimised a little as ground clearance has been reduced, but that was to be expected but my comfort has been increased beyond belief. There is still a slight amount of flexing mainly in the brake lever when hard application is made but in my opinion NO requirement for a gusset as the bracket has been made from one piece of steel it has retained, and due to the close bends actually increased its rigidity, in saying all of this I will probably fit a gusset to one set for me to try out and make a final decision. I have attached a few photos for you all to see, most of the photos are of the raw brackets and levers after bending and welding but I am sure you will see past that.
If anyone is interested in learning more about them please contact me, if there is interest I will be happy to supply them to forum members without footpegs, footpeg adapters and shifter pegs, (as these are generally owners choice) or I can supply with them, I get mine from USA parts dealer and they have a great selection. I can supply all of the parts required powdercoated matt black or raw to fully install on your bike in less than half an hour using only the original gear shifter (reversed) as can be seen from the photos.

MASTER CYLINDER BRACKET DRILLED AND TAPPED 8mm

Looks good mate. Looks like you put in a lot of hard work mate

I got to ask what was your reasoning behind making them yourself? I was thinking you were going to make them a different length than the redefined cycles setup up? But they look bang on 11inch forward?

There complete setup is $450aud

Thanks Simon
The main work was solving the issues that were with the other designs. Mine (the ones you see) are 215mm or about 8 1/2" forward of stock (on my 2013 roadster) which is perfect for me, the reasoning behind me making them myself was to make them to suit me!! and maybe others that arent comfortable with 11" forward of stock. Also having them made from 8mm plate solved 99% of the flexing issue even though they have addressed it themselves. You should also consider that maintaining all of the stock parts without altering them is a bonus.
I know they arent going to be for everyone but thats what customising is all about. I have only seen the refined cycles setup in photos, but they appear to be made from 6mm plate? I am more than happy with the finished item and as mentioned in previous post the bike feels and handles so much better than with the old mid mounted pegs.

ps
I believe the distance forward, was you main complaint of the refined cycle option at the begining of this thread?
