  1. So, dumb question time.

    Having purchased a set of Lightech Rearsets I thought that taking off the standard footrests would be a doddle. However, I can't work out how to get to the 2 mounting bolts on the brake-side? Even removing the slave cylinder doesn't provide access to the top bolt. What's the secret to removal?
     
  2. I did it with a long ball ended Allan key, not easy I grant you
    On fitting the gear lever side, I had to take the gear lever off the rearsets to allow mounting to the link rod then bolt back on to rearsets

  4. Rear sets my next purchase il be interest wat you think of them . U running road or race shit ?
     
  5. Yep they are fiddley too fit, I had to loosen the levers on both sides to get to the mounting studs. Make sure you use loctite or some other sort of thread lock on the studs when you refit them. Because the Panigale has no frame and everything hangs from the engine the high pitch vibration will shake them loose otherwise, no matter how hard you swing on them.
