New Rearsets HELP!

MechaGodzilla · 01-08-2010, 10:14 AM

Trying to decide between Gilles AS31GT Rearsets or Sato Rearsets. Anybody have experience with either? They both look sharp, seems I'll save a little money with the Gilles. Might even go the budget route and get the Woodcraft Adjustable Complete Rear Sets.
Gilles anodized Titanium
Sato probably anodized gold.

I've always liked the Satos. Nice range of adjustment and a very jewel-like feel to them. Once I get $500 burning a hole in my pocket, I'm going to pick up a set. Gilles are in the same class as the Satos, but I just prefer the look of the Satos. Woodcraft makes decent stuff and I'd definitely use them on a track bike, but the other two manufacturers products are made better and priced accordingly.

Woodcraft or Vortex are the way to go, no need to pay extra for the name of Sato or Gilles

im not a fan of vortex, but. if you hit a trackday, and you happen to go down and need parts for your rear sets. they will be there. as for satos, they look great but not alot of track guys use them due to pricing. just my .02 i dont even have aftermarket rear sets...lol
