Hi Ewan the bikes looking good so far well done !!
Have you tried the kickstart to make sure it clears everything ?? I fitted the tarozzi rearsets to my 750 and it hits the brake pedal I think I might have to heat it and bend it so it clears, yours may be different though !!
Cheers

Hi Stu, I think if I'd used the standard tarozzi mounts there might have been an issue... but I've mounted the sets further back .. on the passenger peg mounts , which is better suited to the guiallari seat riding position. Kikstart JUST clears the brake pedal in this position

You must have dropped lucky there. I have now bought two styles of clubman/cafe bars and I'm still not happy how they look. It would help greatly if you are able to measure yours for the width, rise, centre width and pullback of the bars, it may narrow my search for the perfect bars. Thanks in advance! Simon
