Default Sato rearsets Type 2

Just installed them and luving them already. Type 2 is slightly different from original. Check out Sato website to see for yourself. Was able to save the heel guards on both sides (shifter side drilled new hole in heel guard to fit Sato mounting bracket). Smooth acurate shifting. Still playing with adjustments so not yet dialed in. A bit pricey but I feel well worth it for solid feel and precise shifting.

My neighbor is a powdercoater and when he is about to do gloss black I am going to throw the heel guards into the batch. Have to wait if I want the freebee.

Had stock foot controls til 5300 than decided on the Sato Rearsets. I just added the CRG levers,Driven rear sprocket 43teeth with a speedohealer and having a blast tweaking everthing. Seems like a new bike with all the new mods. Probably post some pictures when I wash the bike.

thats awesome, I love the small tweaks that seem to transform the bike to an all newbeast. I take it you didn't go down one in the front (from reading yer mods) , SO, did you git a nice B O O S T off the +2 to the rear? Pretaining to that and the P/C lll, did you remap the P/C when you did the teeth addage?? Be safe, ride hard!

I was looking at the PC software and did not find a gearing function. If you have an idea where to find that please shed some light on that mapping or configuration. Yes I did not mod the front sprocket. I pretty much followed the Hooligan website with a lot of help from Brad at Superbike Supply. He was the one who convinced me with going with Driven instead of Afam. Take off is tighter with less feathering of clutch. Still trying to find the happy medium between the Sato rearsets and CRG levers. This mod is the easy way to gain some pep into your ride. Thought it would be hard to install sprocket and speedohealer but it went pretty smooth. If you do have someone to help that would be the only thing I would have done differently. Feeding the axle took some effort because the rear brake is not attached to the swingarm.
