cbr1000 rear sets

[Calikid91]

I have a set of CBR1000 rearsets I came across for cheap. I have a 78 cb750f. What would be the best way / cheapest / most functional way to go about getting these on my bike?

Just looking for ideas or people who have more experience than i do!

I used CBR600 rear sets on my CB750. I cut some tube steels parts out of another bike frame that had the bends and curves that I was looking for. Then I picked up a set of pre-fabed metal tabs that I would bolt the rear sets to.

I welded the tube steel parts to my frame in such a way as to allow clearance behind the rear sets once they are installed, and to give my feet enough room. I then welded the pre-fabed tabs to the tube steel that I just welded on, bolted on the sets and that was it.

I used the rear sets to hold the tabs while I tacked them so that they would be oriented correctly. I also had a buddy help me out, I held my feet where I felt it would be most comfortable and he tacked the rear sets in place.

You can see it here on my bike.

I took these with my phone so you'll have to pardon the Quality.

Rad! What rear master cylinder did you use? Same bike?

That's the rear master that was attached to the rear sets. I liked the idea of using these because the master, brake pedal, and shifter are already attached and completely adjustable, so much of the work was already done. Just build the brakets and that's it.
