Finally, I got my Gilles Rearsets and CRG Levers on today. Wow..what a difference; CRG Levers are awesome, that are so smooth and feel much more like a precision made part than the stock levers, adjustability is excellent...definitely worth the price...and the Gilles Rearsets....seriously, these are the sh*#....1) I can wear my motorhead boots and the soles do get caught up on the pegs...2) the shifting is seriously more precise than the stock ones 3) the adjustability made my riding position more comfortable, and 4) they just look awesome; they were expensive, no doubt but just the way they shift makes them worth the price to me....I will post some pics soon....still waiting on my Yosh RS5 Carbon Cone; according the my dealer; Yosh got a bad batch of carbon fiber from its supplier and ALL its carbon fiber cans are back ordered..new date is 7/7....sucks to wait

Where did you order your RS-5 from. I was told it was backordered till the 30th of this month but it could very well be 7/7.

The Yoshi is worth the wait. I waited five weeks for mine to arrive... only to be sent the pipe for a 600! The sounds & look are incredible. Check mine out here.





Congrats on your new toys!

I ordered my Yosh through Canyon Honda (they use parts unlimited); i definelty like the look of the pipe, but after this long of a wait, it better be all that...and then some....; dealer called me this morning just to let me know that yosh & PU are both confirming that 7/7 looks like the day (that's until its 7/8)....if it doesn't come in this time, i canceling it and getting something else

I couldn't wait and picked it up from a local dealer for $50 more. It looks and sounds great.

hi AZ im going for the levers and rearsets myself , i noticed the rearsets do not go down but 40mm back and 40mm up maximum , you say they are better though , i mean is this from a racing view or everyday riding ? i dont suppose you have any pics of either on the bike too mate ?

It was from an everday riding point of view. the back was what i need to be more comfortable, i don't even notice the up......had them for a month now and love both the rearset and the levers
