I thought cast ones do less damage as they snap off absorbing a lot of the impact like a crash zone whereas conc milked ones will flip and bounce the bike damaging the frame ,I use American milled nitrile crash bobbins and frame protectors saved my bike from a lot of damage I could not afford to pay .however mine were not real life s enarios but on a race track learning and pushing my snd the bikes limits 😊
Bro. I got a brand new anniversary R7 yesterday and dropped it twice today… I’m getting every protective thing I can tomorrow and not touching it till then lmao.
I just low sided my R7 2 days ago. Have the Akra full system. The carbon fibre heat shield saved the muffler and protected the plastics but I did a few hundred worth of damage in total.
@@Armchair_Economist it’s my first real bike. I had a grom for 6 months before that and wasn’t used to the weight of it. Pulled into a parking lot and tried to put the kickstand down and it didn’t go down all the way and flipped right back up and fell on me, wasn’t too bad but the blinker got fucked up and I still haven’t fixed it but it’s not that bad. The 2nd time I brought it back to my house to show to my family and did the same shit except I was just trying to level out the weight on it and it just fell on me again and it didn’t do any damage before I got it back up. Haven’t dropped it since then and have been more careful. It really just boiled down to the fact I was not used to the weight difference and where the weight on it was at but after getting used to it I throw it around like nobody’s business. Definitely a mistake not taking it slower though.
@@lanceh2009 he explained what happens to it already over a year ago and your egotistical clown self really tried tell him what not to do when he didn’t do that anyway lmao get a grip of your life kid
And with the fixed pegs they are like crash protection anyway. Win win. Between rear sets and frame sliders your fairings won’t even get touched in a low side.
I think the tank would catch some rash/dents. We need aftermarket tank sliders. I haven't seen any, my RC8R has them from factory. The bike in general was engineered to eat crashes pretty well tbh, case covers stay out the way in my, luckily, limited experience haha
Rearset is a dumb upgrade in my experience, slide and it either snap or bent, atempt to bend it back will snap then anyway and yes it does protect exhaust but handle and side fairing will eff up anyway, better go with frame slider since it does make a different.
I definitely agree. There will be a chance in your whole lifetime riding a bike that you will drop it once or 3x. Better to be prepared and protected and be squid like gixxer riders.
Remember those times you've gone a little too far into a corner and your pegs scraped a little? That's the reason your pegs are foldable. With these pegs, it would've been a crash.
Fuck cast aluminum, it's just too brittle. I never thought of using non-folding rearsets to mitigate some of that crash damage. 2 for 1 if I ever build a little Ninja 300, those got the pegs too low and in hindsight I should've fitted some adjustable ones.
Just crashed the other day. Bike went sliding and the right side peg/rear brake bracket snapped in half and the peg just snapped because of the cheap aluminum casting. Definitely will upgrade but man $500 for rearsets vs $80 for frame sliders 😭
I love your channel bro, ever since I found one of your videos a few months ago, you have been my favorite. Thank you for what you do
That bike is sick
Ive a better tip bro…………..DON’T CRASH!!! 😂
😂
If you do, don't die or worse, get maimed.😅

How the fuck did you drop a brand new bike twice in one day.

Maybe don't 'throw it around like nobodies business' that's not exactly how to do it...... You should probably go attend an msf class

In the philippines rearsets are way expensive than frame sliders so we choose frame sliders
Great idea man ,love the content
I still need some just to get my knees in the correct position
Bro! Give us some stats on your pocket bike please!
Nice 1198 👌
this's first time i see you smile 😮
Yo what kinda pocket bike it that? Looks like fun😂
Good info
That mini Suzuki is sick!! what’s the model?
MTA4 pocket race bike
What about when the billet one takes the force into the Frame potentially damaging the frame opposed to stick ones breaking at the peg ?
I have a scooter and it's been dropped so many times anything that can break has already broken except for the exhuast
Stepping on toes ,speed racer

Which one feels better with Chinelas?
Would you go tune for bike first or rear sets?
Where can I get some
What are some good rear sets for a MT-03? TIA!
What about rearsets crashing into the swingarm?
The pegs are made to brake off in the middle ish. Absorbs most of the impact
What suzuki is that beginning of video?
In germany its illegal if they dont fold 🤦♂️
Bruh what pocket bike is that?
What about a cage?
Works better. Just heavy af

With these pegs, it would've been a crash.
The aftermarket/ racing ones will be higher up though surely? If you're leaning over further than a WorldSBK rider then it's probably a crash anyway.

I don’t think they’re worth it for a small bike unless you go ebay ones. Quality rearsets are pricey
yoooo sup
Suuup
Noob here whats a rear set
I see rear sets as an improvement in rider position, not frame safety.
It’s both
Adjustability in ergonomics is obvious
@Adobo Moto I'll kindly disagree, but that's based off of my experience. To each their own
Where's the insult?
U are way to old to be wearing a beanie like that my guy😂😂😂è
That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard
Just get decent rearsets and not the Chinese anodised crap... OEM are better than those cheap rearsets.
