    I've never come across a pair of rear sets that I wasn't been able to ID, before today.
    Any idea what these are, friend says Satos but I'm not sure, doesn't say Sato anywhere.
    Bike is an 08 Chaotic is an idjit.

    I want to to order replacements and was playing with the idea of selling this set and getting 2 units of another brand........not sure at this point.

    I use to have a cheap set named revrush. They looked just like those but for a cbr. That company went out of business long ago.

    All of the Sato's I've seen have the words "Sato Racing" engraved/etched into the metal somewhere, usually on the lower part of the shift and brake lever. I've also seen knockoffs from China on eBay that look very similar to the Sato design.


    ....and that is definitely NOT a 2008 GSXR 600/750 or 1000. Assuming by "Chaotic is an idjit" you mean a GSXR.....that bike is an R6.

    My bad, thought the R6 was the Chaotic is an idjit. Last time I typed R6 into a post it changed to Chaotic is an idiot though o_O.
    Yup it's an R6, and that is exactly why I didn't think they were Satos, it doesn't say 'Sato Racing' anywhere.
    Thanks for the feedback.

    ive used them, they just need little washer on both sides of the lever bearings and use longer, stronger bolts for pegs( i would bend them) also had pegs re knurled deeper. they crashed well and shifted smooth.

    I was thinking of going Attack instead, I'm worried about the overall toughness, I'm a big guy.

    im 195 and ride very much on my toes to help steer. ive bent the stock bolts on alot of brands. not trying to convince you to use them, just saying that for $100 I would deffenatly use again.

    Exactly my thought. The toughest rearsets I've ever tried in terms of feel and grip are the Attacks, rock solid. I could feel the difference between them and the V2 Vortex rearsets they replaced instantly
    Vortex claim that their new V3 2.0 rearsets are made from 7075 T-6 aluminum, same material as the Attacks, so I might give them a try.
