Default RearSet???

As they say theres no dumb question, well here goes. Im starting to look into the possibility changing things up. I'm finding plenty of price point options, with all kinds of adjustability built in. But the one thing i'm not finding, is a pic of anyone in a seated/riding position, a before and after type pic. I could care less of what they actually look like. I want to see how much its going to change my seating position. I'm an avid road/mountain biker so I know how important seating position can be. With all that said, does anyone have pics of before and after of any type of rearset on our beloved F4i? I understand that i'm asking for something that may be on the lines of the legendary Phoenix or a Unicorn, but any help i can get on this will be greatly appreciated, thanks guys!!!

The rearsets don't change your seated position at all, only the angle your legs are bent and its slight at that. Unfortunatly I don't have any before/after pics for you, but I've been riding with plates for my rearsets that moved the stockers back 1" and up 1" for over 30,000 miles now no problem.

If you are a short **** like me then they are amazing; I have SES ones(UK race company) with adjustable plate installed so my knee tucked in the tank, also feel the rear end a lot more when backing it in.

otherwise boredandstroked said it same position and more aggressive position. the top body position are the same.

I don't have picture neither but I can tell you it definitely improve the control of the bike especially in the tight twist back.
