Title: Rearset for '99 M900 Post by: c1fer on March 24, 2009, 11:14:20 AM I was looking at this old Post with all the different Rearsets available.
http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=7726.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=7726.0) I have a 99 M900 and I am looking for a rearset with passenger pegs. I have recently started to commute and my long legs are getting cramped (6'1") And being in NorCal, I ride all year around. I like the Ducati Performance rearsets. Is there any other riders using different brands???? Thanks Title: Re: Rearset for '99 M900 Post by: junior varsity on March 25, 2009, 07:25:21 AM You and I are paddling the same boat.
There are a few considerations: Do you have to have a passenger? Do you have low-mount pipes? Previously, Rizoma rearsets had some spacers or bolts that would allow their rearsets to fit pre-00 monsters. Such is not the case any longer. Sata makes rearsets but they don't include low pipe or passenger peg accomodations. The DP sets you like are Style & Performance. You can get these at Motowheels. Also on the block are AG Hammer rearsets, sold by CA Cycleworks. I have not seen a picture of these installed on a bike before though. Additionally, there are AGRAS rearsets, which can be had from Yoyodyne or EuroMotoAZ. Like the AG Hammer rearsets, I don't know anything about these other than they are offered. I haven't found anybody who has these installed on their bike yet. If you browse the Desmorados / Desmoworld.de site, you might find some additional rearsets available: http://www.desmorados.com/shop/catalog/default.php?cPath=337_367_199 (http://www.desmorados.com/shop/catalog/default.php?cPath=337_367_199) Title: Re: Rearset for '99 M900 Post by: Stangman on March 25, 2009, 08:59:24 AM I'm with you guys. Would like a set of rearsets to lose the ugly stockers. They stick out like a sore thumb and they are huge. I have toyed with the idea of making some myself, maybe next winter I will take a crack at it, too busy right now.
I am leaning towards the Satos for the moment, even though I have low mount pipes, I am confident I could fabricate a bracket for them. They just look so nice and clean. I have considered the AG Hammers also. Made in Japan there is not a lot of pics of them available. Here are a few (be kind these are pictures of pictures [roll] ).

I appreciate that, those are the kind of detail I've been looking for.
I even contacted both Yoyodyne and EuroMotoAZ asking if they had any pics of customer's bikes with them on it: Nope. Title: Re: Rearset for '99 M900 Post by: c1fer on April 03, 2009, 10:47:46 AM Yes I have both an occasional passenger and I have low-mounts...
Thanks for the tips!!! I also have an unusually body type where I have long arms and long legs but a shorter torso...lol go figure! Do you have to have a passenger? Do you have low-mount pipes? http://www.desmorados.com/shop/catalog/default.php?cPath=337_367_199 (http://www.desmorados.com/shop/catalog/default.php?cPath=337_367_199) Title: Re: Rearset for '99 M900 Post by: c1fer on April 03, 2009, 11:01:07 AM Ok I found these....
This are the DP Style and Performance with Passenger. http://www.desmoworks.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&manufacturers_id=23&products_id=453 (http://www.desmoworks.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&manufacturers_id=23&products_id=453) Here is my next request for all you riders.... If you have a M900 with ANY rearset, can you take a nice side photo (of the entire bike) and I can use Photoshop to see how much of a change the positioning will be. I can re-post it.... Maybe you take a photo and put a SODA CAN or something by the front tire for scale..lol (low Tech) Thanks |
