They are crap. buy cheap, buy twice...

They look OK but they flex and I personally would not want my weight through some flexy thin alloy...oh no.

Seems there are a few selling the same rearset designs with different names.

You can be sure these are not, or ever have been, Yoshimura designs or manufacture.

I agree, that's why I acquired these beauties:

I regret buying a cheap set and trying to save a few bucks.

Do it right the first time and buy a decent brand.

SES copies? Those are in a different league to 'Yoshimuras' though.

Yep, the ses copies are not much fun to fit and adjust.

WR's all the way for me next time...
