that's cheap and nasty looking the other kind is much better.

I think that's spent a lot of time in sunlight cos the cf doesn't look pretty anymore
its the same joker who wants £240 for the rizoma rearsets and wont budge

Is that really a Ducati Performance item ?
If so, I'll stick my neck out and say that the design is terrible.
Look at the carbon fibre around the mount holes ...its wafer thin with no reinforcing lip around the edges.
I reckon that would flap about no end, mostly supported by just the speedo cable, and would ultimately break the speedo mount bolts (which are at best also a naff design with two halves glued to a rubber central piece in a poor attempt at rubber mounting).
This has happened to me with a much more rigid carbon dash.
To my mind, that's a prime example of totally inappropriate use of materials.
Carbon fibre may be strong, but it can't deny the laws of physics.
And it looks pretty naff too.
I wouldn't want it if it was free.

Sorry to be so negative, but that's my honest opinion.

The rearsets (Cyclecat), on the other hand, I think I rather like and would probably pay his price.

yes its real I didn't think so either until I checked the catalogue.
the other style is much nicer I haven't seen one before probably cos its fugly

almost 3 months hes been listing them at 240 on free listing events,

they are nice but the heel gaurds are a bit dated now
