What you need is the bracket , go between frame and rear set. You get to make one. Mid or rear set uses basically same bracket. No Ryca parts available so I see fabrication in your future. Caferacerwebshop has some nice rearsets , the non folding peg model is very light and very narrow , as the folding are wider and heavier , but both are nice quality.

RycaDoug,

You can follow my rearset construction from here:https://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1699204635/360 and on.

This build is based on the work of Dave, and he should be given credit for the idea.

If I should do it again, and I probably will, I would move the mounting for the rearset back to coinside with the tube that connects the 2 brackets.

I wish you happy building!

Cheers, Finn Hammer

On my Cafe' bike I have the RYCA made rearset bracket - I used it for a model when building the peg mounts for my Retro Standard bike.

These footpegs will be mounted farther forward than on the Cafe' bike, as I want the bike to be more comfortable for long rides....the handlebars are also mounted in the standard riser mounts to provide a more upright seating position.

In order to allow the pegs to be more forward and lower, there will be outer plates where the pegs will have mounting points that are more forward and lower. I have not yet completed my footpeg mounts - spring/summer came and it was necessary for me to start doing yard work!

Here is a link to what I have so far:

I did search the group for rearset & rearsets, and couldn’t find anything of substance. One of the reacons I started the Ryca/Cafe group on FB was to gather info like this for others to easily find.

The PO did not like the Ryca solution, so he made and mounted some custom pegs through the swingarm. 😮 His solution is higher and farther back than the Ryca solution.
