Since i broke my leg, i'm having dramas bending my knee, and as i want to be on the bike now.
I'm thinking of putting new rearsets on my 07cbr1000, but i want to know will i be able to adjust the peg to ass height. As i want to make it longer so my knee isnt bent as much.
So how much difference will they make? Even 25mm or so will be a couple of degrees.
Thanks

they usually only start from stock position and go up and back

Most rear sets allow you to move pegs higher and back which will worsen your situation.

Very few if any after market rear-sets will give you more room... perhaps make up some plates to move the existing rear sets. I made some for my track bike to do the opposite of what you want but it shouldn't be to hard to go the other way.

I got a piece of 8mm aluminium off cut from a fabrication shop and got busy. They work a treat, pretty smick for a $5 piece of aluminium a hacksaw and file I reckon :)

In fact just looking at those pics I'm pretty sure if you flipped the plates they would move the rear-sets down or down and back...
