If you're looking for location they move your feet back about 5" and up about 2 1/2" depending on where you have the stock pegs now. Position is not as far back as the Raask which is excessive. Position is what I feel is a good compromise and should work up to about 6ft in height. If you're taller than that your legs may be cramped. To make them fully adjustable would increase the price significantly and I'm trying to keep a price that most people can afford. |

The reason I asked I wanted to see how far forward the rear sets lean the rider !!!! I've always like clip ons but when I tried them on my 75H2 with stock pegs it just didn't work for me !!! The rear sets may work with clip ons !!! |

I'd like to try rear sets and clip-ons or even try them with my old clubmans! |

as you know am Raask rearset with ace bar on my H2A: nearly perfect but am a little to much on the rear (and am 1.76 meter high). I love clips on and had some on my K triples on the 70s. But now with the vibrations I prefer ace bar which is rubber mounting. But a H2 or an early H1 with clips on is awesome (but not the riding position if you haven'i also rearset   .

We will have to use the swingarm bolt and the stock footpeg mount for the mounting plate which means we will have to supply a new swingarm bolt as it will need to be longer to accommodate the mounting plates. Its going to require more engineering but I'm already working on it. Try the swingarm bolt from a Z1 or a KZ1000. Same diameter and nut as the H2, but it's longer by about 1/2 inch...maybe a bit longer. Jeff Mounting plates are 12mm thick on each side so would need around 1" in additional length. I already have a company that makes swingarm pivot bolts to length so sourcing is not a problem - just cost.

And not have to use a longer swinger bolt. Never cared for designs like that. Not stable enough for me. All my rearset designs have a minimum of 2 bolted mounting points with a mounting plate thickness of 12mm minimum to get a solid, rigid mount. |

This is a 72 500 frame, are the earlier 500 frames the same?
