All,

Looking for some feedback. I have always drooled over the Sato rearsets. I was about to pull the trigger but I also really like the TSRs that Simon is selling.

I like how clean and OEM looking the TSRs are. They can be run with standard or GP shift pattern without additional cost. I have had great experiences with Simon as well.

The Satos are, well Satos, and I really like the idea of bearings in the pedals. The Satos are cheaper (gasp) and I've bought quite a few things from KyleRacing and really like supporting Mike over there.

I'm genuinely torn as I can make arguments for both and I would be happy with either. What would you choose and why? Thanks.

Cnc machined from A2017 aluminium and clear anodized. I have managed to have gotten these wonderful rearsets reissued from TSR (last made in 2004). Heel guards are autoclaved pre preg carbon fibre (alone must be worth quite a bit to produce!).

I have Sato’s on my 06 and TSR’s on my 01.
I prefer the feel of my Sato’s the most over the TSR’s. I think the Sato’s look better too

I have satos on my 05 R1 and ran some on my 05 RC before switching to tsr. Prefer the tsr.

Haven't tried Sato but big +1 on the silver TSR from Simon. They are perfect, size 10.5 Sidi race boots everytime I ride and they are butter.. plus like the oem look as well on the RC

Jeez, you guys aren't making this any easier...

Thanks. Is the feel more solid, smoother, both?

Thanks, never heard of them. Interesting setup and a great price. Do you have any experience with them?

Only problem I had was with rear brake I changed out the hemi joint and put a different clevis and added a spring.

Either one is an excellent choice. I went with Sato's and then had to buy the return spring and GP shift separate. It would be nice if they were all together like the TSR.

Smoother, like butter and adjustable for my liking

The Nobunakas are quite similar to the Satos and much cheaper ie replacement parts. Sato replacement parts are expensive I found out the hard way after a track day.

Bonamici, they are Italian, everyone wants to go cheap here. High quality stuff. You need an inline brake pressure switch for the brake light to function. I had to machine an additional piece to get my foot to work with the brake pedal. This was a comfort thing for me, some injuries to that knee and ankle. Look them up…their tag line is “Jewelry for your motorcycle “.

I too wanted TSR nevertheless adjustability came to beat out beauty.
