: Gilles VCR Rear set problem...
gcain 01-17-2008, 02:10 AM Hi Guys,
I finally got around to fitting the Gilles VCR Rear sets I bought for a steal of Motomummy (shameless plug for Corey there :P) but have suddenly hit a bit of a snag.
The right side (break) went on fine, no problems what-so-ever.
The left side (gears) I just can't seem to work out. Where/how the hell do I fit the adapter that holds the actual shift lever?
It says to loosen the Engine bolt and fit it into the adapter from the right side... :dunno
The instructions are pretty average and I can't find a howto in google.
Any help greatly appreciated! :bow
Bogie 01-17-2008, 02:53 AM The bolt actually goes all the way through from one side to the other bro. :fact
Let me guess....you turn and turn and all it does is spin on the right side?? :sing
Go to the left side of the bike......that is where the nut is. :fact
Take it off and pull the rod all the way out and put it back through the otherway that way the threaded end of the bolt is on the right side and you have something to mount to. :thumbup
gcain 01-17-2008, 03:13 AM Thanks Bogie! :blush Didn't realise it went the entire way through the engine. :)
So I pull the entire rod out and then re-insert it from the other side eh?
Going to give that a whirl right now!
:thumbup
Thanks.

Yup...I had the same problem. :fact
Instructions for the Sato's said nothing about doing this either. :lmao

A comedian is only as good as his material. :lol
How about a nice pictorial write up so that others (me) can give the illusion later how smart we are when it comes to a rearset install?:workout

J Dollaz 01-18-2008, 05:25 AM any pics?
Are these the Set's with the Floating Shifter ? (not connected to peg)
and is this Through or outside the Frame.(Shift rod) ?

I didnt take a pic of the gear side though.
Yes it has a floating shifter, the rod is on the outside of the frame, however it sits infront of it because it's floating.
It doesnt actually go to the rearset... Make sense?
I can post a pic in the morning if you want one...?
J Dollaz 01-18-2008, 05:32 AM Nah, i know what you mean!
thats what i meant by Floating, those are Very HOT IMO...
The way they Adjust is Amazing, Way nicer than all those Holes to choose from!
I Like those alot! Nice Choice!

The last track day I did on my old 00 I took my wife with a video camera along so I could get something to remember my bike by; didn't want to be one of those guys that no one believes, I wanted footage to prove I could ride.
She spent the entire day filming the wrong bike :/ The guy was fast though :mock
Bogie 01-21-2008, 02:56 AM :lmao :lmao :lmao
Actually I never feel the need to prove anything to anyone......I ride for me and the guys I ride with know how I ride.
