Hello,
First off sorry if this is a repost; I tried to use the search function but came up with nothing…

I recently purchased a ’07 Triumph Speed Triple. The bike is great, but after riding it for a few hundred miles I have found myself to be a bit tall for the motorcycle. I think a set of rear sets that would bring my foot up and back would land my knee in a perfect position against the tank. After looking on the internet I came across Rizoma wed site and found a great looking set (www.rizoma.com/images/PDF/rizoma_en_sport3.pdf) a bit spendy but might be worth it if they made the motorcycle fit better. However I cannot find a dealer of Rizoma in the US anywhere :X !!!

Also, does anyone have any other suggestions for Speed Triple rear sets.

Thanks for your time,
Ryan

Try LSL from Jack Lilley. They are UK based and will mail to the US.
I bought my LSL's on a visit to London. They are very good and give up 1 inch and back 2 inches of adjustment.

There are a few more pictures in my gallery if you'd like to look.

+1 on the LSLs - very well made (German engineering!) and easily adjusted but not exactly cheap.

Several places in the US sell them - check out Spiegler Performance Parts for just one example.

Everyone,
Thanks for the welcome and replies. It is a close comparison between the Rizoma and LSL Rear sets, both look quality. I am going to go with the LSL although they are more expensive (~$75 more than Rizoma) but I think the overall design justifies it as there are more integrated pivots and cleaner in appearance.

I gave a call to Spiegler (thanks for the link) and they are back ordered for a few weeks, but I got one anyhow, figure its worth the wait. (should be here in 2 -3 weeks) And man do they look good!!!

Thanks again,
Ryan

I also got my Rizomas from Pj's. He is great to deal with, always calls and e-mails, shipping is fast and can special order almost anything from Rizoma.
