Raptor Rear Sets

Post by Mike Edwards »

Italian company Rosmoto have produced some rear sets for the Raptor. I think they look pretty good (despite the choice of anodised colours).

They are also working on making some adjustable ones that should be ready in just over a month.

Image

The prices are 240 Euro (around 162 pounds) for the adjustable rear sets and 185 Euro (around 125 pounds) for the fixed ones. Prices all plus VAT.

If there is enough interest I will import a few sets to cut down on postage.

Really?

That's a hellof a lot better than the ones I have on my Race Raptor. They are at least an inch higher and a couple of inches further back. Now that hurts, especially after I broke my leg last year!

blimey, they'd look nice if they where not powder coated, but with a 38inch inside leg i think i'll give them a miss.

How are the cans held on at the rear if you no longer have the original footrests?

They also sell similar styled rear sets for the passengers which, I assume, also do the job of exhaust hangers.

Brayns Manual wrote:55 years ago Passenger/Pillion : This weight on the rear part of the Raptor seat screams in your ear and causes pain in the ribs/kidneys - this is a non standard part and can cause distraction of the rider and loss of speed/cornering ability. If you find one on your machine we recommend immediate removal

It's taken a while...

It's taken a while but RosMoto finally seem to have sorted the adjustable rear set issue.

I'm probably going to order a set (obviously in a sensible colour, i.e. everything black). Anyone interested in some to cut down on postage, etc.?

Should have said that they are 240 Euros (plus VAT) for the Raptor 1000 and 270 Euros (plus VAT) for the Raptor 650.

The price difference is apparently due to some extra rose joints required for the 650. Well, that's my take on it as his English wasn't too clear (still a lot better than my Italian though!).
