I didn't anticipate on spending the money on some bling for the Aprilia but I got a killer deal on a set of Sato's. I was going to get some Woodcrafts since they are affordable. The main thing I want is the reverse shifting or GP shift pattern. The Sato set can be fitted for both regular and GP shift so it's even more attractive. The footrests are pretty damn important when you are doing wheelies and pushing the limits so it's basically a great investment. The ball bearing pivots and heim joints are very smooth and damn they look great.

Compared to the stock set (in same box!)


Quite the difference. The bolts need a little refreshing but at least the corroded ones on the heel guards are no longer in sight.
