Nice looking rearsets, they look very adjustable.
Beware: If you buy in the US you'll almost certainly get held to ransom for 6% duty, 20% VAT and a 'management fee' by UPS and HMRC. Plenty of suppliers in UK/Europe. |

I haven't seen Pompone on here for a while, so I don't know if he still checks mail etc. His website is

They look very neat, Frosty. I like the vertically mounted master cylinder.
The pictures show them fitted with a hydraulic brake light switch, although one isn't mentioned in the dealer's description. Best to check with them before buying to see if one is included. |

Go for it! That seems like a really good price for what looks like a quality item. I've got a similar brake light switch on my rearsets and it works perfectly.
Are you planning to fit them yourself? If so, be aware that the rear brake is a complete PITA to bleed as the nipple is on the bottom of the caliper. I've found it helps to remove the caliper, flip it over so the nipple's on top and slide it on the top run of the disc (put some protective tape on the caliper to stop it rubbing on the swingarm). If you've got a vacuum bleeder or even a syringe to help draw the fluid through, that speeds things up. Don't forget to let us know what they're like when you've fitted them (and post a couple of photos too of course!) |

I thought these looked familiar. Those ebay pictures are lifted from the Sato Racing website https://satoracing.com/rearsets_ducatim796.htm (Japanese manufacturer) but the seller has blacked out the Sato marks from the gear shift and brake pedals.
Check with the seller; are these genuine Sato rearsets or copies? If genuine, then that's a great price as they're currently US$675 on Sato's website. They have a good reputation for quality and design and I considered them for my Evo, (but couldn't afford them!). If, however, they are copies, (perhaps Chinese), then beware. They MIGHT be as good as the Satos but often copies will be made from inferior materials and the anodizing may fade quite quickly. If the seller is confident in the product, why the fake photo other than to deceive the buyer? |
