    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I'm looking at doing a custom set of rear sets. Does anyone know where I could source a shift and brake arm that I can use for the linkage, or is my best bet salvaging some from a parts bike?
 
I used a set stock first generation R1 rear sets and fabricated brackets from 3/8 aluminum plate, best part is I got the set for $80 can. The reason I choose them was because the rear master cylinder is incorporated into the rear set, no need for extra linkages.

Similar... I don't recall what they came off of, but I found them on Craigslist. I had a buddy cut some aluminum stock that I used to mount them to the existing peg holes.

Shift and brake arms can be made easily by using an appropriate length piece of tubing and welding nuts on each end. Heim joints can be had on ebay or most industrial supply stores.
