they look nice,

just outta curiosity, how come you went for rear-sets?

I scrape my peg feelers on fast bends and islands but I like it when that happens as it lets me know how far the bike is over :S

when i scrape the peg it makes me uneasy, as i tend to throw the bike down and i have had it on roundabout etc were i throw it in hit the peg and come up and have to adjust to get to it round the corner :o , id just rather not be scraping, my mates like it tho as it tends to spark in the evenings

o and i use my knee to tell he how far im lent over (and my eyes ;) )

should i drill 2 small holes to mount it?
how is it returned on the rc30/45's?
Please don't.

The brake lever should return normally anyway after use (like the front level does naturally). For the brake light switch, use a hydraulic item, available from Harris.

yeh i didnt want to, i thought that might be the case but wasnt sure, i was going to get a HEL pressure switch,

should i look at getting better (sintered?) pads for the back brake or is this a bit overkill?

Aaah :) I dont' lean off on the street, too much effort, easier to change the peg feelers every so often!

You can't overkill the rear brake of an NC30. I fully refreshed mine, new seals, new pistons, oil, braided lines, disc, sintered pads. Good for balance around town, but little else. Every little helps I guess.
