    Do they change the riding position ?
    What are the benefits beside the bling?

    They are an awesome bit of kit. I can rotate the gear shift & brake pedal a long way to almost any position I like. I couldn't think of going back to the stock set at all....Really impressed by these & one of the best mods I've done.

    Would it be possible to show photos of the old versus the new rear-sets? I like the thought of adjustable pegs but just wanted to see how much higher / further back than normal they are.

    Many thanks.

    Very nice. I’m debating getting some for my Gen 1 as I’d like a more rearward peg position, plus a slightly shorter reach to the gear lever.

    Does their look and feel come across as particularly track or touring biased, or suitable for both? I believe the Gen 1s lack the spring-back pegs for those rare times when you catch a leg.

    I’ll probably keep an eye out for s/h ones (or discounted new) as £600 is a fair whack… but they do look tasty.

    Gen 1s do have spring back pegs they just have a very steep angle so they're practically useless lol.

    I have the HP rear sets fitted to my Gen 1 XR and most definitely do not have spring loaded pegs on them, I believe orbits was referring to these as opposed to the OEM rear sets.

    Yea I meant OEM standard ones. Most race focused rear sets forgo springs for sturdiness, so not surprised.
