Rizoma rearset vs Sato rearset

pergo · March 08, 2009, 04:20:28 PM

Hi, I need some advice on which rearset would be better for my monster s4r. If anyone here have a set of Rizoma or Sato rearsets are you happy with them. it is very hard to pick either one they both look great $:-\$

I have the Rizoma's and they are great, they were also available. To be honest, I would go with what ever you can get local support for, and for me that was Rizoma. The beauty of rearsets is when you fall or drop your bike you can replace just the part you bent, not the whole rearset.

I have the Rizomas as well. I think they make top notch stuff, and I have a local supplier and I can just pick the Rizoma bits up. I am not a fan of the Sato's.

I've got zero complaints about my Sato rearsets.

I am shopping for rearsets and came across Sato's for the 696, except they claim they are down to their LAST 2, no more in production evar!!

WTF? They are much cheaper (more affordable) than Rizomas, considering PC-iing them since dislike the silver. Suggestions???!

I really like my Sato's. I prefer the solid black look on them as well compared to the rizoma

The Satos you linked to are for the older Monsters - not for the 696/1100 - which are not listed (yet?).

If you do, be careful remounting the big rubber bushing - not very easy to remove/install (so I've heard)
- and tell us about the result

If I ever damage my own rearsets, these are high on MY list (Gilles.tooling)

Neat!

I had the Sato's and really enjoyed them, BUT I got rid of them because they do not have a passenger peg option. Something to consider...

for the poster's s4r the passenger pegs are separate anyway, not all in one giant bracket like the dual swinger bikes.
