Rearset Advice Much Appreciated

[remfanuk]

I have a 1979 Moto Guzzi V50 that I wish to change the footrests on. I would like to get the footrest back a bit as I am putting clipon bars on this bike. However, the footrest, as can be seen in the photo attaches directly to lugs on the frame...



So...what are my options for a rearset solution? Links, suggestions, advice, photos all grateful. Thanks

I did a quick internet search and came up with this site.

They seem pricey, but if you are handy working with metal, you could probably build your own. Looks like you will have to build your own bracket and attach some linkage from there.
Good luck! Cant wait to see what you come up with!

Well done...they are lovely! not cheap but by far the best solution I have seen. Might contact the company to see where/how they attach to the frame. Thank you!

Went for the FlyHammer rearsets which needed a tiny modification...they are wonderful quality and although I have not used them in anger as yet, I am pleased with the result.
