I'll be damned. Looks like one could use that to get those style rearsets on a Monster.

They are dirt cheap.

Not exactly.

Monster frames don't have the part that drops down to the swingarm pivot for those tabs to be welded onto.

If you use solid mount footpegs on the superbikes and hit the ground it is quite likely you'll end up with a bent or broken tab. This is why their new rear sets have folding pegs and they now offer the frame tabs!

Awesome find.  I need a set of those.  My tabs look like the after photo.
