I will ask about the DB killers, as am sure they would be removable, but nice to know anyway..

As for the Rearsets, the owner of Metaltech has them on his own bike, and is a very smart cookie when it comes to design and manufacturing, his main business is producing titanium hips and knee replacements .. i will check the adjustability with him, and take a photo of a set later...

Yeah, in Italy there's no way around "Omologato". Db-killers are actually visible in the picture. My question then is, can they be removed? No need to research - a new bike is not in my near future.

If you talk to the MetalTech guy, can you find out what kind of adjustability he's planning? I have my CycleCat rearsets about 40mm back and 10mm down compared to stock pegs. It would be nice to have options besides GillesTooling if I ever should need to replace mine. I'm also curious to know if he's adressing the possible binding issues that came up with the Gilles'.

adjustable hip and knee replacements?? sorry just saw the funny side - my warped sense of humour!

i thought it was ironic when i found out, but i guess now he's making rearsets the hip and knees might become adjustable too...

I see a point somewhere in the not too distant future where this thread is going to be the undoing of any last shred of fiscal restraint I have. Damn you bling junkies for getting me addicted.

i tend to look at these products as being functional first, form second.. it's easier to justify that way..

An update from Metaltech last night with some new products, also a better image of the Monster rearsets, (currently 696/1100, soon to suit S2R/S4R/S4RS) and a mechanical drawing showing the adjustments etc and parts, which are all available as spares..





New Clutch Covers, and some wheel nuts!

[Mr.S2R]

impressive stuff!  be interested when they are ready for S2R!

[stopintime]

Rough measurement taken from the picture tells me that even if placed in the last/rear holes, the pegs will not be further back than the stock S*R pegs. If these are to offer the advantage of a rearward peg position, MetalTech needs to make a longer base plate. Unless of course the strength and beauty is enough by itself

The drawing shows a part # 1. It's the vibration dampening rubber thing. It doesn't say "originale", but is it? Either way, to me it shows that the manufacturer is serious about funcionality

Another idea - do you think he'd be interested in making kickstands - longer versions?

[ozducati]

I will ask Metaltech to confirm the adjustments on the rearsets, and if he is interested in possibly making a kickstand..

Definataly interested for the s4r and price.How long till their ready ?

[ozducati]

I am told late March they will be ready, not taking into account any delays they may have, but they are pretty good in terms of manufacturing and delivery.. price would most likely be the same as the 696/1100 rearsets, which is currently $649.00

[gino]

Thanks for that.They look tough , no nonsence and simple.Is there a web site so i can get up dates ?I think im going to go them when ready !

[mattyvas]

Gino I'd say all your updates would be dome via Ozducati as he is their man for Aussie sales.
