Default rearsets?

hey your guys, i have a question about rearsets. I've been watching videos of bikers knee dragging and i can't wait till i get the chance to try. ive heard that the stock CBR rear sets are too low and hit the ground before you get any significant lean angle, is this true? i also wanna look into some after market rear sets anyway because i dont feel comfortable with stock height. anyone know about any brand of cheap ones. or is selling some cheap?

Stock rear sets are fine.... you can lean significantly with no contact. take the bike through some twisty roads and get a feel for it before modding the riding position.

The cheapest way would be to can make a bracket yourself to move them: https://cbrforum.com/forum/showthrea...=100450&page=6

Interesting, I've never heard clearance referenced as an issue on the F2. I've been rallying the bike pretty hard without any issues, but then again I got some slight chicken strips on the outside of my rear tire...
