Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

That seems insanely cheap for rearsets. I mean, they are very simple and not really flashy, but still...

These ones are much closer to the middle of the bike. Not pushed out as far as the stock rearsets.

Not only that, but these are able to be adjusted far enough back to use a reverse shifter...

Looking at them, I would try the brushed alloy colour if they have it. I wonder how much flex. Still, at that price worth a try.

I don't think that would look that great against the magnesium color of the engine and swingarm...

Yeah, I hear you, I thought if the black colour wears they could look tatty. At the price you could have them re coloured in something very durable.

Right. I mean, the stock setup didn't hold up well after <6 months of riding...

Disappointing for sure, but if anything rubs so bad, it would have to be a very tough coating to not show. The oem foot pegs are such an after thought around the exhaust they probably wreck peoples boots over time. Some people are complaining about other models with the "shotgun" pipes.
The stockers are so damn ugly, it's not much to lose trying the geckos. Interesting to see how you find them.

Yeah. I didn't have a problem with the stock setup on my S2R1000...

Either way, $300 shipped isn't bad at all. Definitely on the short list...
