No really actually, I was just like, you wee , they rearset hangers cost a bomb from Kawasaki.

Plenty on eBay for around £15

no there isn't, I've hit it hard, and none are for a g1 or g2.

and they are all the rear passengers hangers.

£70 for the tiny bracket i need from Kawasaki

Hahaha yes I am, I realised I was looking at rear ones, right after I posted

There are a few folk listing zx6r's for breaking, you should be able to get one for less than £70

Had you dropped your bike on that side before, you forget how much you rely on it staying in one piece until something breaks, you did well to stay on.

no, but when I had my identical one, i stole that side rear set as it had the original gear lever.

I suspect the previous owner dropped it and its just went over time..




that will teach me for stealing all the "good parts"

Oh I thought you'd fallen off.

It was clearly a pothole. One of those massive ones you never seem to see but force people into having spectacular crashes.

has anyone used gb moto? are they like that j4race, where it was uk company house but Chinese rearsets.

I have a hanger from a guy locally for £35 (weird one I called him up and asked as he was breaking one, "sorry its sold mate" ok no problem, got a text later "got a guy buying it for £30 if you beat it you have it" so offered £35 and he said pick it up."

anyway, I cant justify £350 for gilles, and these are the only ones that aren't Chinese.

That said, the manufactures one wasn't exactly great.

I bought some carbon fibre off them a few weeks back. Ordered at 1pm and turned up the next morning.

Probably the tyre slipping in the rim what caused it.

kinda blows the argument of "use your pegs to steer" out of the water.

Think back to being a wee bairn. Just drag your pegs on the floor to steer like ya did your sledge by dragging your feet. This 'mod' just makes it easier to turn left

fked right off I had my new plus smx or whatever theyre call boots on that I just got for my xmas, I was trying like a bear so they never scrapped the ground.

[Tim85]

Welcome to the club. At least it didn't happen when you were properly on it. My arse totally fell out but I think that was more down to the dropping a gear.

yours fell off because you never checked before going on track!

always do it before going out. GOOD PM

[Tim85]

Good pm? No idea what that means. Mine showed a weird downside to race shift. Albeit a freakishly unlikely one but if it was normal pattern when the shift rod hit either the ground or my foot. Not really sure which in the panic it knocked it down a gear rather than up which wouldn't of been a problem.

[moanthebairns]

PM = preventative maintenance
