I have to admit, these look fantastic. If only I had the loot to pick up a set. And even though I never carry passengers, the optional foot peg carrier really does complete the package.

So who is jumping into the deep end of the pool first? Whomever does, please be sure to review and post images.

They look sharp but I'm waiting on the ones from Speedymoto.

love my rizomas on my S2R800.
top notch quality just like all their other products.
the price wasn't bad for me either, around $525 bucks.

I was expecting these to run at something of a premium, but $810... :o.... They are  a thing of beauty and Rizoma quality is always top-notch.... but I think I'll also hold off to have a close look at the SpeedyMoto ones......  maybe after the early adopters have snapped up the initial batch the price might moderate a little.....

i am considering it, but as i said before i need the passenger pegs. and having the passenger pegs defeats the whole purpose of having the rear sets, as it looks to close to the stock ones. with the stock ones powder coated black, the rizomas don't look anywhere near $1200 better...

They look great...just the price is a bit ridiculous. I know rizoma makes quality things but...damn.

aren't the purpose of rearsets to place everything further back, so for me would be less likely to drag hardparts next time at Jennings? oooops  [laugh]

There seems to be a lot of interest in these, but a lot of people aren't impressed with the price... maybe I could put together a group buy for you guys and get the price around $700-$730?

They would have to be set further back, as I mentioned. Also, either come colored or work with my red Oberon pegs??

Oh yeah and then I would have to find the money also  [bang]

what i don't understand is why these are so much? i was looking at other rearsets for ducati monsters and they are around $515-$600. where are these so much more? because they are new?

I'm not really sure... we just price them off of what we buy them at. I really have no idea how Rizoma decides on their pricing.

At $700 you can have my order right now, so count me in on a group buy at that price. 

Seriously, that's more like it.
