    Does anyone have good size pictures of the Moto-R rear sets for 07 GSXR's?

    Any feedback on them vs. other brands?

    I know that they stopped making the products, but is there anyone elses replacement parts that may actually work with them if needed?

    Found a good deal on them, but have never seen them in person!

    Any feedback welcome!

    I can not say enough about the Moto-R products. I have had a few crashes (5) this year and have yet had to replace as much as a peg. Spares are available I believe through speedwerks. Will check with them to make sure. Just checked...the only thing they have as spares are the foot pegs and toe pegs.

    I believe speedwerks bought all of Moto-R's inventory, but I don't think they are producing any more parts, just selling what they have. I had a case cover I wanted to get an extra of and they couldn't match colors.

    Last time I looked they were selling them for $200 a set.....that is $20 below what they cost to make.

    what exactly happened to moto-r?

    When I ordered my case covers, the product was great quality (color faded to purple though) and the service was pretty straight forward.

    Owners lost the government contract building SatCom trailers for the military (all their eggs in one basket) that was funding MOTO-R...so no money.
    All the inventory sold to SpeedWerks, all the drawings, trademarks etc...sitting in a file cabinet..

    They Rule! Best rear sets ever! I hope that Speedwerks restarts production and hires Britt to design stuff for the new bikes. I have never used a set of rear sets that functioned so well and were that durable.

    The ike he is working on at the moment re his parts order to you, sounds really horny, sought of like a MOTO GP bike in a strange way

    I still think the footpeg needs to be thicker or at least blunted to some degree.

    I remember a thread where the footpeg sliced open a guys thigh like a knife.

    Of course no way telling what kind of damage a round peg would have caused but it just seems like it wouldn't be the same.

    I don't think that was one of the MOTO-R pegs was it??

    Yes, it was a MOTO-R peg, I was there. Funny thing, Tom is racing again after a lengthly healing process (He missed a full AMA season as Chris Peris' teamate at ESP) and when he showed up he's still using those pegs.

    MOTO-R....stronger than your leg....:D

    Loved my Moto-R's. Great product, unfortunatly without parts replacement they arent a good option right now. Thankfully Brit had a bracket when I bent mine or I would have had to buy a full set just for the bracket.

    Britt...still owe you a shirt dont I?

    Wow, I read the whole thread about that guys leg and never knew it was one of our pegs...ouch. Anyone got a link to that thread?? I couldn't find it.

    Yes TrackStar you do...lol

    For the price that SpeedWorks is charging you can get a spare set and have parts if you need them $199....
