Title: Monster 1200 Rearsets Post by: oldndumb on April 27, 2015, 07:31:28 AM Apologize if this is already mentioned elsewhere.
DucaBike is now offering billet rearsets for the 1200. No idea if they remedy the right foot position awkwardness.

Not sure if any of this is different on the 1200 rearsets.
1. Very Nice Build Quality on the DucaBike ...they look great 2. They sit noticably higher (2-3" ?) and the pegs are shorter which makes sense as they are racing rearsets but it definitely feels weird and less comfortable. I'm told you get used to it but if I dont get used to it they're coming off. 3. They dont use a spring to push your brake lever back up it's done by the force of the piston. You will probably need to bleed your rear brakes if the piston isnt pushing the rod out and forcing the lever back up. 4. Mount them with the bike on rear stand not on the kick stand. I didnt notice that one of the bolts on my original rearsets was also the 2nd bolt holding my kickstand to the bike (duh!!) and the bike almost tipped over when I took it off the stand and tried to put it on the kick stand.
