S2/S4 rizoma rear sets vs m696/1100 rizoma rear sets vs woodcraft on an m1100?

The only part of the Woodcraft rear sets that are even a bit purple are the foot pegs. Everything else is dead black.

you got a better pc'd set than me.

Thanks for all of the feed back, I actually ended up going with the Woodcrafts and I am super happy with them.  The fitment was excellent and installation was simple. The only mod I made was to paint some of the bolts black to make them blend better. Pics to come soon. Next up speedy moto triple and woodcraft clip ons.

Installing the rear sets is more difficult than the triple/clip-ons so you should breeze through them. The pain in the ass for the rear sets is getting off the stock pieces..

What did you end up doing for the rear brake light switch?

I have Rizoma's M1100 rearsets on my M1100

I'm thinking about trying to do this instal myself (Rizoma REV PE209B on 2010 M1100S), but am not very mechanically minded.  My big concern is about the brake fluid stuff.  I know Rizoma supply a small bracket to lift the reservoir, as the master cylinder is positioned differently to on the stock set.  I have read (elsewhere) that despite this the hose still tends to kink and needs to be cut shorter.  Is that your experience?  I wouldn't have the first idea how to go about bleeding the brake lines if I have to detach anything that might open the circuit.

Also, where did you get yours from?  BikeCraft are quoting $1014 on their web-site

Thanks for any advice

StephenC - Its true you do need to trim a little length off the hose from the reservoir to the master cylinder.  I clamped mine with forceps, trimmed and refitted to the master cylinder, allow the air above the forceps to bubble up through the reservoir and when theres no more bubbles, unclamp. No air ingress and so no bleeding required.

Buying within Aus is gonna cost you a small fortune.  I usually try to shop with our DMF sponsors, but for my Rizoma needs I buy from PJs  >>>  PJsParts  <<<  Great service and fast shipping to OZ.

Order placed through PJs.  Thanks for your help.  I may need a little more when the time comes to fit the things!
