Recommended Posts

Hello guys! 

I would like to start this topic in order to discuss about which chinese rearset we should choose.

I found differents "models" like: Kemimoto, Arashi, BDJ, FXCNC... 

What is your opinion about this? How can we identify a good chinese model?

I would save up for Woodcraft.  Made and designed in the USA.

I have Arashi rear sets and rear rotor on my 1980 Suzuki gs1100 and the quality is very good.

I think it depends on the use: racing, track riding or street?

Mmm let’s say street use with aggressive and racing position

+1 on this. You get what you pay for with rear sets. Every part on Woodcraft is replacable. When something breaks on the Chinese (and they will), you have to start over.

ABC = Anything But Chinese. Sato's are quite nice.

Cheap mirrors are one thing. Buy them all day. They're not a safety hazard unless you get smacked with one as it flies off.

Cheap pegs are another issue entirely. They are primary control surfaces that allow you to control the bike. Losing a peg while riding can cause a serious issues. Especially if you're going  to be riding aggressively.

I know rearsets aren't cheap. I get it. But neither are the repairs if one of the cheap chinesium pegs snaps off or connecting rod comes lose while leaned over in a curve. Save up for a quality set that will be cheaper in the long run. 

The same advise goes for cheap levers. You don't want a brake lever snapping in half when you're panic braking for a cager that wasn't paying attention.

All that being said, you get whatever you want. You're an adult. The risks are yours to manage.✌️

I buy Chinese products all the time, but I will never get motorcycle control related item from a “cheap” Chinese source.  Life is not worth the gamble with questionable Chinesium.
