Rear set qustion
Has any one had any issues with fitting the RHS Rear set and getting the brake lever to fit in the correct place ?
I have a set of Diamond copy's and the brake lever is sitting miles to low, i have adjusted the master cylinder screw thread as far as it will go but still no joy.
Any one got any ideas ?

That's one of the problem with the 'one size fits all' rearsets that are all over the net these days. I guess you'll have to knock something up in the shed as Biff says.

Same here! I've also a set of copied Diamonds and had to make a slightly longer than standard bracket too!

Re: Rear set qustion
I fitted a set of genuine diamond rearsets and the lever is quite low, so fitted a braided line to help with the travel but have now lost some feel.http://www.bikepics.com/pictures/1262957/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
