Sure, I will get some up.  I bought these rearsets on Ebay from a seller that I believe was named Narsurin, but I can't find him again.  He had a bunch of universal fit rearsets, I paid $160 for these.  He had some that were going for $30 or so, but they were too Japanese looking for me.  Here is a link to one that looks similar, but I doubt it is exactly the same:

These rearsets are basically a copy of Sato's, and they appear to be quite well made.  They have bearings for the pedals and are anodized aluminum.  The catch is they are not bolt on.  As you can see in the last picture I posted, I cut off the upper footpeg bracket mounting tab and re-welded it underneath the engine mount.  The pegs are about 1" higher than stock, and can be adjusted rearward.  My seat is also 1" higher than stock, so I have the same spacing there.  They are also tucked in closer (narrower) to the engine than the stock ones so I will have a good bit more ground clearance.  The rear brake master cylinder mount did not work as it came either, so I am still in the process of fabbing one.

To save $300 over the price of Sato's the work was worth it for me, as I am doing a ton of welding on the frame and will be repainting it anyways, but as a stand-alone mod it may not be worth it to you.

 Looking forward to seeing your progress. The overall effect is great even at this early stage. [popcorn]
