Default kick back adpater plates

Do anyone have these installed and what is your opinion on them? Good or Bad. They move the forwards back 1.25"
Ps: pictures would be great?

Not personally but accutronix makes great stuff I'm sure they work as advertised. Fixing your shift and brake rods will be necessary.

Some say you will not have to modify your gear linkage?

With those plates you should only have to adjust the shift lever position and the brake rod length.

I think you might also need to worry about hitting your exhaust, depending on the kind you have.

I have no doubts to the quality of Accutronix's stuff, but I typically see them for sale at over a hundred bucks. They're essentially just a set a threaded plates and some screws, right?

I wish I had the time right now because I've had about 30 people ask me to make them a set. The only permanent mod to the bike is the brake rod length. Which you have to cut off 1 1/4" from the end of it then weld the threaded end back on.

The nuts for the new mounting holes are welded onto the back of the plates.
